​This season, Swank welcomes an impressive lineup of talented chefs and several new themes, including “Champagne & Caviar Dreams ‘80s Pajama Party," “A Tribute to Alice Waters” and “Louisiana Blues.” Themed events have become a hallmark of the Swank Table series, with guests fully embracing the experience by dressing up to match the evening's theme, creating a lively and immersive atmosphere. Whether channeling the 1970s with groovy attire, dressing in all white, or wearing a cowboy hat and boots for the ho-down, the creativity and enthusiasm of attendees add a unique flair to each event. This year also marks the return of Swank's "Infused: A Cannabis Dinner,” a unique event showcasing cannabis grown at Swank Farms.

Swank Table dinners are a celebration of local purveyors and Florida agriculture. Each menu showcases the finest ingredients sourced from Swank Farm and neighboring farms, ensuring that every bite reflects the region's rich agricultural heritage. From fresh, pesticide-free vegetables to micro-greens and edible flowers, the farm’s bounty takes center stage, supported by local partners. Sponsors of Swank Table include The Palm Beaches, Mr. Greens, Independent Seafood, Palm Beach Illustrated, Una Vodka, Miami Club Rum, Jon Wine, Bread by Johnny, Euro Floral Design, Parce Coffee, Bliss Farm, Alonso Apiaries and Sutton Milk.
