City’s Taste Of Bermuda Returns Next Week
Taste of Bermuda 2026 returns from October 8 to 11, featuring four days of culinary experiences, entertainment and events at venues across Hamilton and beyond.
A spokesperson said, “The countdown is on! Taste of Bermuda returns next week, and there’s still time to grab your tickets for some of the most exciting culinary experiences ever brought to the Island.
“From a 3D movie on your tabletop, to an outdoor movie you can actually taste, this year’s festival promises four days of extraordinary food, entertainment and experiences that go well beyond traditional dining.
“Taking place from Thursday, October 8 through Sunday, October 11, Taste of Bermuda 2026 will transform venues across Hamilton and beyond, with something to satisfy every appetite.”
City of Hamilton Director of Marketing and Communications Jessica Astwood said: “The City has curated two entirely new concepts to the island that people would ordinarily experience while travelling, creating a boutique culinary weekend for Bermuda that blends food, entertainment and innovation that is both accessible and world-class.”
“We are so proud of what our team and partners have built. These are not simply dinners, they are immersive experiences designed to create memories and showcase Hamilton as a place willing to embrace fresh ideas.”
“Quite frankly, we genuinely believe they are among the most unique culinary experiences ever presented in Bermuda for all ages. Opportunities like this do not come around often, and we’re excited to share them with the community.
“This is a rare chance to experience something truly unique without leaving the island. If you’ve been sitting on the fence about buying a ticket, this is your sign! Grab some friends, grab the kids, choose your experiences and we’ll see you next week.”
The spokesperson said, “And, thanks to the generous support of Paradise Mobile, guests who purchase tickets to two or more Taste of Bermuda experiences will be entered into a prize draw for the chance to win round-trip BermudAir flights for two to any destination on its network, or a year of Paradise Mobile’s Atlas service, valued at $1,000. Simply book two or more Taste experiences to be entered into the draw.

- Tabletop Theatre – Saturday, October 10 | Pier 6
“Imagine sitting down to dinner and watching your table transform into a living, moving work of art. Using state-of-the-art 3D technology, Tabletop Theatre brings animated scenes to life directly on the dining table. Flowers bloom and landscapes change before your eyes as each course is served, taking diners on a visual and culinary journey through Bermuda’s seasons.
“Brought to Bermuda by Las Vegas-based immersive experience specialists Lumen & Forge, this spectacular dining experience combines storytelling, animation and a specially curated menu, with complimentary wine pairings courtesy of Discovery Wines. Two seatings are available, with an exclusive after-party following the later seating, giving guests even more reason to make a night of it.
- The Edible Movie: Bites, Camera, Action! – Sunday, October 11 | Fort Hamilton
“You’ve watched a movie. You’ve had dinner. But have you ever tasted a movie while watching it? Fort Hamilton will be transformed into a magical outdoor cinema for a screening of Disney and Pixar’s Ratatouille, complete with delicious food and a few surprises along the way. As the story unfolds on the big screen, guests will be served specially created bites inspired by the film, timed to coincide with key moments on screen. Imagine watching Remy create his culinary masterpieces while enjoying flavours inspired by the very dishes you’re seeing. With two seatings available and a VIP shuttle service for VIP ticket holders, this promises to be a movie night unlike any other.
Fort Hamilton Temporary Closure
“To accommodate The Edible Movie, Fort Hamilton will be closed to the public from Friday, October 9 through Monday, October 12. The closure will allow for the installation and removal of the specialist equipment required to transform the historic venue for the immersive cinema experience. Fort Hamilton is expected to reopen following the event on Monday, October 12.
“With Taste just days away, the City is encouraging anyone who has yet to make plans to secure their tickets while they can.
“Come hungry. Come curious. Taste something different.
