The Taste of Space: Fall Bites! Food Festival is returning to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, offering guests the chance to try some exclusive dishes that are sure to take their taste buds on a journey to the moon and back!

  • Pear Galette with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream at Milky Way
  • Chili with Lentils and Squash, and Cranberry Brie Moon Puffs with Honey and Toasted Almonds at Orbit Cafe

Two separately-ticketed after-hours events are back this year too, the first of which is the Marstini Shake-Off on October 4th. Back by popular demand for a fourth year, this event sees local bars and restaurants compete to create their take on a ‘Marstini’, which is scored by a panel of astronaut judges. Guests will get to sample all the cocktails and mix and mingle with the chefs and astronauts. 

The season will then go out with a bang with Taste of Space: Celebrity Chef Edition on November 2nd. Here guests can watch live celebrity chef demonstrations and tastings, while also getting the chance to meet some astronauts!

And this year there's a brand new event for guests to enjoy too; the Ice Cream Social, where the whole family can get involved and make an ice cream sundae masterpiece with the help of celebrity chefs! You'll even get the try a sweet treat frozen using liquid nitrogen. This event will finish the whole season on November 3rd.
