The story

Flavors of Curacao in Willemstad

Curacao's largest culinary festival, organised by the Curacao Hospitality and Tourism Association as an island-wide fundraiser, bringing dozens of restaurants together for signature-dish tastings, food trucks, premium bars and live music at a rotating venue that has included the Renaissance Curacao Resort and the Hilton parking lot.

Organised by CHATA, the Curacao Hospitality and Tourism Association, specifically as a fundraising event for the association itself, Flavors of Curacao has grown into what its own organisers describe as the island's largest culinary festival, an outdoor event where participating restaurants prepare smaller versions of their signature dishes so guests can sample as many different kitchens as they like across a single evening.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Flavors of Curacao draws participating restaurants from across the island's entire hospitality industry rather than one neighbourhood, with a 2019 edition alone drawing more than four thousand guests and over forty restaurants to a sold-out gathering, a genuinely island-wide scale that distinguishes it from Pietermaai's smaller, district-specific tasting events like Pietermaai Proeft

02

The mystery stays covered

Proceeds specifically support CHATA's ongoing work representing Curacao's hospitality and tourism industry, tying the culinary showcase directly to the island's broader tourism promotion efforts
