SpicetoberFest is Boston’s hottest fall celebration, it's a spicy harvest festival of bold local flavors and vibrant culture. Launching on October 18, 2025, with support from the City of Boston, SpicetoberFest will celebrate the city's diverse culinary and cultural fabric by providing a platform for spicy food vendors, urban farmers, chefs, local hot sauce makers, artisan and craft beverage producers, and entertainers to showcase their talents.
In collaboration with the City of Boston, local small businesses, and nonprofit partners, the festival focuses on harvest-season spices and bold, spicy flavors while promoting the culinary diversity of Boston’s food makers and creators. SpicetoberFest offers a multisensory experience like no other—highlighting the intersection of spice, culture, and food—and creates an inclusive space for all Bostonians and visitors to come together and enjoy unique, high-quality programming. This event is supported in part by the Mayor’s Office of Arts & Culture. Community partners include The Williams Agency, Sustainable Business Network's Boston Local Food Program, Boston Public Market, Haley House, Sustainable Food and Culture, and more.
