Belize is set to host the second annual International Music and Food Festival this summer, showcasing the country’s vibrant music scene and diverse culinary offerings. Organized by the Belize Tourism Board (BTB), the festival aims to promote local musicians and chefs while attracting visitors from around the world.

Scheduled for July 29th and 30th in Belize City, the festival promises to be a musical extravaganza featuring a fusion of genres such as Punta, Soca, Reggae, Dancehall, and Latin beats. The lineup includes both Belizean megastars and globally renowned artists, with dynamic performances from artists, bands, and DJs.

But the music is only part of the story. The festival’s food court will be a sensory experience in itself, with vendors from across the country offering a range of cuisines and beverages. Visitors will have the chance to taste the flavors of Belize, from the spicy heat of Caribbean jerk chicken to the rich, hearty stews of the Maya and Garifuna cultures.

The festival is not just about music and food, though. It also offers a unique opportunity to explore the rich cultural heritage of Belize. From the ancient Maya ruins of Caracol and Xunantunich to the colorful colonial architecture of Belize City, the country has a rich history waiting to be discovered.
