Cooking with Purpose.
Community Is the Promise.

Global Fire is a celebration of fire culture across world cuisine. Every chef, every dish, every pour — shaped by live flame. Not a festival trick. Not a theme. The oldest cooking method on earth, given the reverence it has always deserved.

Fire is not the gimmick. Fire is the premise. In 2026, that premise comes to Breckenridge — where we're building a community around one of the most ancient cooking formats, featuring the stars of Colorado: award-winning chefs who have the nod and up-and-coming talent chasing their first Michelin star.

We're cooking in the community. And when we cook in the community, it feels like home. Your invitation is below.
