Mango Festival
The summer’s juiciest weekend in Miami
For one weekend each summer, Fairchild becomes the largest mango experience in the country.
More than 400 varieties on display.
One of the world’s great living mango collections.
Three decades of tradition, one city that takes this fruit seriously.
Miami is a mango city. The trees grow in every other backyard. The fruit shows up on family tables, at cookouts, in recipes passed down from Havana, Kingston, Santo Domingo, and Delhi. Everyone has a favorite variety. Everyone argues about it.
And everyone knows the feeling of picking one off the tree, standing at the kitchen sink, and eating it right there, juice running down your wrists — the best five minutes of summer.
Every one of those backyard trees has a story, and most of them lead back to Fairchild. For one weekend in June, the people behind that work bring it all together: thousands of mangos, shaped by the scientists and horticulturists who made South Florida a mango region.
Adult (12+) $27.95 – Senior (+65) $20.95
Child (3-11) $14.95 – FREE for Fairchild Members and Children 0-12
