Moscone Center hosts Winter FancyFaire 2027 for three floor days, Sunday 17 January through Tuesday 19 January, at 747 Howard Street in San Francisco.
The Specialty Food Association publishes one clock for the run. Every hour below reads off its schedule-at-a-glance page and its event page.
Exhibit hours read 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Pacific on Sunday 17 and Monday 18 January, then 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Pacific on Tuesday 19 January.
Every hall opens at 9:30 a.m. for buyer badges, a half hour ahead of the published floor time.
Six hours of floor time sit in each of the first two days and five in the third.
Moscone's own event feed assigns the booking to Moscone North and South, so the floor sits on one campus.
Arrival and Badge Collection
Registration and badge pick-up open at 8 a.m. in the Moscone Center Lobby on Friday 15 January and run to 5 p.m.
Friday also carries Good Food Awards Judging, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., listed as invite only.
A Saturday arrival still reaches a staffed desk. Saturday 16 January badge pick-up runs 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the same lobby.
On each show day the desk opens at 8 a.m. It closes at 4 p.m. on Sunday and Monday and at 2 p.m. on Tuesday.
Friday holds the longest desk of the week at nine hours. Saturday, Sunday and Monday run eight hours each, and Tuesday runs six.
Three Evening Tasting Trails
The Campus Tasting Trail runs 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. on three consecutive evenings, each at a different restaurant in a different district.
a Mano's Hayes Valley table takes Saturday 16 January, Canela's in The Castro takes Sunday 17 January, and China Live's in China Town takes Monday 18 January.
The trail page describes each menu pairing: house-made pasta, pizza and cocktails at a Mano, Spanish tapas, paella and wine at Canela, and fresh, seasonal Chinese cuisine at China Live.
The trail page sets out the format in its own line: exhibitor products come to life in bespoke, chef-prepared menu items at three culinary hot spots across San Francisco.
Each evening runs five hours. The page publishes a district for every restaurant and no street address, so build the route from the district.
The first evening lands the night before the floor opens. A Saturday arrival can start at a Mano at 4 p.m. and reach the lobby desk when it opens at 8 a.m. the next morning.
What Runs After the Floor Closes
Saturday 16 January carries a Buyer Welcome Reception from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. and a GFF Member Networking Event from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. The schedule lists both as invite only.
Sunday 17 January closes with the 2027 sofi Awards Celebration from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., and the schedule lists its location as to be announced.
Monday 18 January runs an NFL Playoffs Watch Party from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. at The Chieftain Irish Pub and Restaurant, 198 5th Street.
Tuesday 19 January carries no evening row.
Filling the Day Between the Floor Hours
Sunday and Monday repeat two daytime additions. Discovery Kitchen Live Chef Demos run 12:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. at Booth 2074 on both days, and Pathfinder Stage Programming runs 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Booth 3548.
Tuesday shortens both. Discovery Kitchen runs 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Pathfinder runs 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Sunday adds a Show Opening Celebration from 9:45 a.m. to 10 a.m. on the floor, and Good Food Mercantile from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Esplanade Area of the Exhibit Hall.
Monday adds a Broker Breakfast from 9 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., listed as invite only, and a Guilde des Fromagers Ceremony from 3:15 p.m. to 4:15 p.m. at the Pathfinder Stage.
Building the Trip Around the Clock
Three floor days and three trail evenings fit inside one arrival and departure pair. Saturday 16 January to Tuesday 19 January covers four days and three nights.
The Saturday trail evening makes that the binding first night for anyone who wants all three.
A Sunday arrival that departs on Tuesday holds two nights and still reaches the show opening celebration.
Tuesday closes the run early. The badge desk shuts at 2 p.m. and the floor at 3 p.m., so a same-day departure can follow the closing hour.
