Nevis Mango Festival: A Celebration of Island Flavor
Nevis, a small Caribbean island rich in history and charm, hosts one of the most delicious celebrations in the Caribbean—the Nevis Mango Festival. Scheduled annually in early July, with the 2025 festival set from July 4 to 6, this event showcases the island’s abundant mango varieties, turning them into culinary masterpieces crafted by talented local and international chefs.
This year, the festival will be headlined by James Beard Award-winning chef and author Bryant Terry, who will lead a series of events including a hands-on Masterclass, the Supper Club, and the 'For the Love of Mangoes' showcase.

Mango lovers will find paradise here. From traditional Caribbean dishes to inventive gourmet recipes, everything revolves around this sweet, tropical fruit. The festival typically lasts several days, filled with cooking demonstrations, mango tastings, culinary competitions, and vibrant local music. A highlight is often the "Mango Madness Street Fair," where visitors can sample and purchase mango-inspired dishes and artisanal products directly from local vendors.
What makes Nevis' mangoes so special? The island's volcanic soil and ideal climate produce exceptionally sweet and aromatic mangoes. With over 40 varieties, including the famous Amory Polly and Julie mangoes, each bite reveals why Nevisian mangoes have earned such acclaim.
Staying on Nevis during the festival adds another layer of enjoyment. Accommodations like The Hamilton offer guests the beachfront version of home, blending luxury comforts with the practicalities of fully furnished apartments.
Beyond mangoes, visitors can explore lush botanical gardens, historical landmarks like the birthplace of Alexander Hamilton, or simply relax on tranquil beaches. However, it’s the mango festival itself that promises unforgettable memories, especially for those passionate about tropical flavors and island culture.
Experience Nevis through its taste—one mango at a time.
