The event is produced by a21, formerly Agency 21 Consulting, the nation’s premier culinary experiential marketing agency. The event aims to educate consumers and create an unforgettable experience for guests. The event showcases honest food from real farmers prepared with love and precise technique.

“We take great joy in honoring our local heritage as we bring Heritage Fuego back to our beloved hometown of Miami,” Brett Friedman says, Partner and CEO of Agency 21. “Returning to Miami marks a wonderful opportunity to celebrate our 14-city tour as it ends in December. We eagerly anticipate our return, enriched by the local influences, as we craft vibrant, live-fire dishes complemented by exceptional wine, spirits, and cocktails.”

After tasting the delicacies, guests at Heritage Fuego can vote for the “Best Bite of the Day.” The winner will be crowned Heritage Hero and invited to participate in the first-ever Heritage Fire Grand Finale event at the 2024 Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival presented by Capital One.
