The Croqueta Palooza festival celebrates everything that is special about living in South Florida.
”Of all the food festivals that take place in this town (and there are plenty), this event tasted, felt and sounded the most Miami.” – edible South Florida
Croqueta Palooza 2022
Heya 👋
Can you believe it? This is the 9th annual Croqueta Palooza festival.
When the idea for Croqueta Palooza popped into my head in 2013, who would’ve thought this event about life in the 305 would still be so loved? I mean, I kinda did 🤣
So here we are my friends; let’s get together once again and celebrate croquetas and everything that makes Miami special!
Croqueta Palooza 2022 is (Friday, December 2nd at Magic City Casino) brought to you by Orion Fuels & Gayo Azul Cheese.

Croqueta Palooza 2021
At last, after two years, a real live event took place for Croqueta Palooza 2021.
Croqueta Palooza 2020 Special Edition
Believe it or not, Croqueta Palooza came back in 2020 for its 7th annual edition. Unfortunately, it was not the type of event we wanted, but until an actual indoor event can happen at a regular capacity, it’s the best we could do.
