The Worlds of Flavor International Conference & Festival, presented by The Culinary Institute of America, is widely acknowledged as the United States most influential professional forum on world cuisines and culinary flavor trends. The annual gathering has become a "must attend" for leading chefs, corporate menu decision-makers, foodservice management executives, suppliers, journalists, and other professionals. The event has become such a popular draw that it now sells out in a matter of days, six months in advance!

The event is the college's flagship conference, and every November literally transforms the CIA's Napa Valley campus into an amazing crossroads of world food and culture. Each year it showcases the "gold standards" of world cuisines—from the Mediterranean and Latin America to Asia—that are increasingly reshaping American palates and the U.S. foodservice industry.
