Truro Food Festival is back this September, bringing five days of brilliant food, drink, chefs and entertainment to the heart of the city.

Taking place from Wednesday 23 to Sunday 27 September 2026, the festival will once again transform Lemon Quay into a celebration of Cornwall’s incredible food and drink scene.

And this year, we’re going bigger.

Across five days, we’ll welcome more than 30 chefs to our live Chef Theatre, alongside some of Cornwall’s best producers, street food traders and drinks makers. There’ll be workshops, live music, festival bars and plenty happening throughout the city.

New for 2026: Feast Nights

One of the biggest additions this year is our brand-new programme of Feast Nights.

For the first time, we’re inviting chefs into the festival for special dining experiences, giving guests the chance to sit down, eat together and experience a completely different side of Truro Food Festival.

Expect great chefs, incredible Cornish produce, cooking over fire and menus created especially for the festival.

We’ll be revealing more feasts over the coming weeks.

Five days of food in the heart of Truro

At the heart of the festival remains the thing we love most: bringing people together around food.

Our daytime festival remains free to attend, so you can wander through Lemon Quay, discover producers, grab something from our street food traders, watch a chef demo, have a drink and soak up the atmosphere.

Whether you’re joining us for an hour, an afternoon or all five days, there’ll be plenty to discover.

Truro Food Festival 2026 takes place from Wednesday 23 to Sunday 27 September on Lemon Quay, Truro.

Keep an eye on our News page and social channels as we reveal chefs, feasts, workshops, traders and plenty more over the coming weeks.
