One of the Kent’s most beloved foodie events is back at Victoria Gardens
Open 10am-6pm Friday/Saturday & 10am-5pm on Sunday
With the end of a glorious summer, Broadstairs Autumn Food Festival is the next notable step on the county’s calendar.
The three-day weekend will be an epicurean delight with a full Festival marquee programme.
This historic coastal town’s festival draws thousands of food-lovers each year, promising an action-packed weekend full of immersive culinary theatre and some of the region’s top talent. Almost 100 of Kent’s finest producers - It wouldn’t be the Broadstairs Food Festival without championing Kent talent.
The Victoria Gardens, with their unique clifftop location, will be awash with an impressive range of almost 100 traders of local and regional products: ales and ciders, award winning bakery, confectionery, pickles, preserves and cheese.
Festival Marquee: Taking to the stage, throughout the 3 days, will be a cast of exceptional chefs, that includes Michelin starred Stephen Harris, The Sportsman, Seasalter, Broadstairs newies, Tony & Becky Rodd of Fifteen Square Metres, Broadstairs and National Chef of the Year finalist 2024, Craig Edgell of Buoy and Oyster, Margate.
Ticketed events: Ale lovers will be offered a rare opportunity to meet local brewers and experience the unique taste of green hop ale. It is a limited-edition ale, particular to harvest time. No festival would be complete without a wine tasting. This autumn, the festival will feature, not one but, two taste sessions. Biddenden’s Tom Barnes will partner Steve Parker as they share their twin passions: cheese and wine and Alex Prymaka closes the weekend with a twist: a blind wine tasting session to tease palettes. A lively session and a fitting end to the festival weekend.
Foot tapping: A festival is not a festival without music and Broadstairs won’t be the exception to the rule. There is ample outdoor seating around the bandstand, with local musicians on Friday and Saturday, closing with Thanet Concert Band on Sunday (Music 2pm - 4pm)
Dog policy: Guide, assistance and hearing dogs are welcome on site. Access is limited to these registered animals only
