Four Seasons Resort and Residences Anguilla Celebrates 10 Years with Inaugural Chef Fest Anguilla

In celebration of its 10th anniversary as a Four Seasons property, Four Seasons Resort and Residences Anguilla announces the inaugural Chef Fest, a three-day culinary festival taking place November 13-15, 2026. Bringing together acclaimed chefs from across the Caribbean, the Four Seasons portfolio and beyond, the event will showcase the region's extraordinary culinary talent while celebrating Anguilla's longstanding reputation as the Culinary Capital of the Caribbean. The festival will feature chef collaborations, immersive dining experiences, restaurant takeovers and a grand finale brunch, creating a weekend that highlights the people, flavors and traditions that mark ten years of exceptional Four Seasons hospitality on the island.

Set against the backdrop of one of the Caribbean's most celebrated luxury resorts, Chef Fest Anguilla will transform Four Seasons Resort Anguilla into a dynamic stage for culinary collaboration. Guests will enjoy immersive dining experiences, cooking demonstrations, mixology activations and exclusive chef-led events across the resort's five distinctive dining venues: Salt, Lima-Limon, Bamboo Bar & Grill, Café Nai and the iconic Sunset Lounge. Designed to foster creativity, connection and cultural exchange, each experience will celebrate the ingredients, traditions and techniques that define the Caribbean's rich culinary heritage.

"As we celebrate a decade as a Four Seasons destination, Chef Fest Anguilla is a natural expression of what has always set this resort apart," said Diego Stembert, General Manager.
