Yosemite National Park’s Chef’s Holidays starts again in January featuring acclaimed and innovative chefs from around the country.

This series of events includes an intimate reception with the chef with wine and hors d’oeuvres, cooking demonstrations and tastings, behind-the-scenes kitchen tours and a gala dinner prepared by the visiting chef and served in the Ahwahnee dining room.

Dinner-only tickets are available for $199, and several eat-and-stay packages are available for the Ahwahnee and the Yosemite Lodge at the Falls.
