About

Abergavenny Food Festival is held annually on the third weekend of September. The next event will be held on the weekend of the 19th and 20th September 2026.

Abergavenny Food Festival fills an entire market town for one weekend every September. You’ll graze your way through 120+ producers in the market halls, catch a debate that makes you rethink where your food comes from, learn something hands-on in a workshop, and end up in conversation with a farmer, a chef, or a complete stranger over something delicious.

After dark, the Castle opens its gates for live music and late-night feasting for Party in the Castle.
