Share Your Passion: Apply to be a PanAm Festival Chef
Food is the language of culture, and the PanAm Festival is a grand conversation. We are looking for talented chefs, sommeliers, and food experts to share their knowledge and passion on our culinary stage. This is your chance to go beyond the plate and connect with an audience hungry for knowledge, hosting food demos, workshops, or tasting sessions.
