The St. Augustine Spanish Food & Wine Festival's mission is to connect St. Augustine to our city's Spanish history through a series of special events that feature Spanish wine, cuisine, and culture.

The festival serves to raise money for local charities, provide memorable experiences for visitors, foster international economic development, and enrich the quality of life in the community.

All proceeds from the St. Augustine Spanish Food & Wine Festival will go to benefit the Flagler College Hospitality & Tourism Management Program and its talented students. The Flagler College Hospitality & Tourism Management Program is career-focused, offers a complementary blend of hospitality and business, and is structured around the practical application of hospitality and tourism business principles.
