SAVOR SoFLO Returns to Hollywood Beach for a Flavor-Fueled Weekend of Bites, Booze, and Beachside Bliss That’s Anything But Mild.

March 24th, 2026

SAVOR SoFLO, presented by Publix and the City of Hollywood, returns to the sands of Hollywood Beach on April 18 and 19, 2026, promising two days of nonstop culinary excitement. Now in its sixth year, this beloved beachfront festival is the ultimate celebration of South Florida’s food, drinks and beachside vibes, an event no foodie can afford to miss.

Set against the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean, SAVOR SoFLO transforms the Hollywood Broadwalk into a 25,000+ square-foot playground of flavor, where festival-goers can indulge in gourmet bites, craft beers, fine wines and premium spirits. From returning fan-favorites like Margaritaville Restaurants, Morton’s and The Palm to fresh new culinary talents making their debut, the festival delivers the best of South Florida’s vibrant food scene in one unforgettable weekend.

Sustainability takes center stage, too. In line with the City of Hollywood’s green initiatives, all vendors will use compostable or biodegradable materials, keeping the beach as pristine as the dishes on display.

What to Expect in 2026:

San Pellegrino Cooking Stage: Watch top local and national chefs whip up culinary magic with interactive demos
Royal Rice Pavilion Tastings: Exclusive chef tastings and curated bites by notable chef personalities including [CHEF NAME]
Publix Liquors VIP Spirits Lounge: Premium cocktails in a tropical tiki-inspired oasis

“SAVOR SoFLO has become more than a festival, it’s a celebration of community, creativity and flavor,” said Tammy Gail, founder and producer of SAVOR SoFLO. “Every year, we’re amazed by the energy, the food and the people who make this event so special. This year will be filled with unforgettable experiences right on Hollywood Beach.”

General Admission ($120) grants access to unlimited tastings, live entertainment, and full festival fun from 1PM to 4PM.

Welcome to South Florida Insider!

As Miami Beach Pride 2026 returns to Ocean Drive this April, Palace Bar Miami Beach is once again set to be one of the biggest centers of the celebration. Known for its drag shows, open-air dining, and longtime place in South Florida’s LGBTQ+ community, Palace will host a full schedule of Pride Week events while standing directly across from one of the most meaningful new symbols of the weekend: the restored rainbow crosswalk in Miami Beach.

On Friday, April 10, the City of Miami Beach will unveil the rebuilt LGBTQIA+ rainbow crosswalk in Lummus Park, just steps from the Palace on Ocean Drive. The installation was recreated using 3,606 salvaged pavers from the original 2009 crosswalk, giving the city a renewed and permanent symbol of LGBTQ+ visibility, unity, and pride. Its location across from the Palace makes the venue a natural backdrop for one of the most talked-about moments of Miami Beach Pride 2026.

That visibility is nothing new for Palace. Owned by Tom Donall, a co-founder of Miami Beach Pride, Palace has spent nearly four decades building its reputation as one of the most iconic LGBTQ+ venues in Miami Beach. For locals and visitors alike, it has become a go-to destination for drag entertainment, brunch, nightlife, and community on Ocean Drive.

This year’s Palace Bar Miami Beach Pride lineup runs from April 8 through April 12 and includes some of the week’s biggest events. The schedule features the Miami Beach Pride Pageant on April 8, the Haus of Gucci Ball on April 10, and a full weekend of brunches, rooftop events, performances, and DJ sets from Oscar Velasquez and Jrny. Pride weekend will close on Sunday, April 12, with a major final celebration featuring DJ Dani Brasil and appearances by RuPaul’s Drag Race stars Jimbo and Trinity the Tuck.
