The Flavors of the World food festival, running on Saturdays and Sundays from March 23 to May 5, will take guests on a journey to seven different countries.
Located at Magic Mountain in Valencia, California, the international food festival aims to recreate the vibrant atmosphere of street markets found in India, Greece, Mexico, Italy, China, Korea, and the Caribbean. This year's festival replaces the French booth with flavors from Mexico, offering visitors a diverse range of culinary delights.
A Gastronomic Journey Across Seven Countries
The menu lineup for the Flavors of the World food festival at Six Flags Magic Mountain includes a variety of dishes from each participating country. In the Caribbean booth, visitors can indulge in Cubano Cigar Spring Rolls, Jamaican Jerk Chicken, Vegetable Empanadas, Sweet Plantains, and Pine Orange Punch. The China booth offers Chicken Pot Stickers, Sticky Pork Bao Bun, Yakisoba Noodles with Chicken, Youtiao (Chinese donuts), and Tiger Lily Boba Soda. Mexico brings Chicken Tostada, Birria Taco, Elote, Tres Leches Cake, and Horchata. Greece offers Beef Gyro on Pita Bread, Baklava, Horiatiki (Greek Salad), Hummus with Pita Chips, and Drink of the Gods. The India booth presents Grilled Tandoori Chicken Kabab, Coconut Curry Chicken with Naan Bites, Punjabi Samosa, Rice Kheer, and Masala Chai.

Savor the Flavors with the Sip & Savor Passport
The festival booths, spread throughout the park in areas such as Full Throttle Plaza, Whistlestop Park, Goliath Plaza, and near Lex Luthor: Drop of Doom, will offer nearly three dozen traditional foods and drinks for guests to sample. To make the most of the experience, visitors can purchase a Sip & Savor Passport, which allows them to enjoy 8 or 12 samples from the festival booths. With prices ranging from $50 for 8 samples to $65 for 12 samples, the passports offer a cost-effective way to savor the flavors of the world, with each item averaging around $6.25 or $5.40, respectively.
