Royal Tunbridge Wells Food & Drink Festival September 2026

The Royal Tunbridge Wells Food & Drink Festival is back! we are taking over the beautiful Calverley Grounds for two days of gastronomic delight.

Whether you are a seasoned foodie or just looking for a fun day out with the family, there is something for everyone to sink their teeth into.

• The Marketplace: Explore over 55 stallholders showcasing the best of Kent and international flavors. From artisan cheeses and freshly baked breads to decadent fudge and locally roasted coffee.
• The Street Food Café: Take a break in our dedicated dining area. Enjoy hot, homemade dishes including English, European, Asian, and New World specialties.
• The "Taster Menu" Experience: We’ve placed a £9 cap on all meals, allowing you to sample multiple world cuisines without breaking the bank!

Get closer to the craft! This year, we are thrilled to feature our Cooking Demonstration Stage.

• Live Recipes: Watch expert chefs whip up signature dishes and take the recipes home to try yourself.
• Meet the Makers: Hear directly from our stallholders as they share the stories, secrets, and passion behind their unique products.

"A fun-packed, tasty foodie weekend in one of the town's most beautiful parks. It’s the perfect way to support local producers while enjoying global flavors."
