Dartmouth Food Festival 2026
The Dartmouth Food Festival is a three‑day celebration (23‑25 Oct 2026) showcasing the South West’s culinary scene. Core attractions include live chef demonstrations in the Chefs Demonstration Theatre featuring local and national talent such as Matt Tebbutt, Jane Baxter and patron Mitch Tonks, highlighting Devon seafood, organic meat, fruit, veg and foraged items. A robust programme of wine seminars and tastings, led by award‑winning expert Rebecca Mitchell, runs alongside the free‑to‑attend Food Matters talks that explore contemporary food issues with chefs, writers, scientists and industry insiders. Trade exhibitors (A‑Z) present regional produce, artisanal foods and drinks across bustling stalls. Additional highlights are the Dartmouth Food Festival Cookbook (60+ recipes, 224 pages) marking the 20th anniversary, volunteer‑run operations, and extensive sponsorship and community support. The festival blends education, tasting, and entertainment, offering visitors hands‑on demos, masterclasses, and a vibrant market atmosphere.
