The Ballymaloe Festival of Food is a celebration dedicated to the journey of exceptional cuisine from the soil and sea to your plate. This exciting weekend includes an array of engaging activities designed to inspire and educate food enthusiasts of all ages.
Ireland’s premier food festival, three flavour-packed days of cook-offs, pop-up dining, demos, workshops, talks, live music and a heaving Food, Drink & Craft Emporium. Expect Michelin-level chefs, regenerative-farm evangelists, foraging walks, cocktail labs, kids’ cook-school, late-night discos and more – all on the grounds of the legendary Ballymaloe House.
Two main demo stages headlined by global names (think Mark Moriarty, Fadi Kattan, Rachel Allen, Jay Rayner and friends).
“Scoop & a Yarn” debates on the future of food, sustainability and culture.
Drinks Theatre tastings, butter discos, oyster shucking, tattoo pop-ups, orchard tours – the schedule is crammed.
Kerrygold picks up the butter-fat-rich tab, so standards (and calories) are high.
