Burger Fest returns for second edition with three days of culinary creativity
Some 30 chefs and restaurants reinvented the burger at Port-au-Prince's El Rancho convention center, according to Le Nouvelliste.
The second edition of Burger Fest drew hundreds of visitors to the El Rancho convention center from October 16 to 18, 2026, for three days of food and entertainment, Le Nouvelliste reported. About thirty chefs and restaurants took part, reinventing the burger in a variety of styles. According to the outlet, the experience extended well beyond the plate, with each stand promising a distinctive culinary journey. Offerings ranged from sweet-and-savory and vegetable burgers to versions featuring noodles, brioche or colored buns, iced preparations, and toppings such as beetroot sauce, chef's sauce or guacamole. Le Nouvelliste noted that organizers expanded the event this year, reinventing the space for the occasion. Related coverage from the outlet referenced a Heineken competition that revealed two young culinary talents, as well as a Burger Week 2026 in which Epi D'Or was highlighted. The festival combined gastronomy with entertainment across its three-day run. Further details of the event were available only to registered readers of the source publication.
