/ What's On?
The West Waterford Festival of Food is held annually in the stunning surrounds of West Waterford, with its mountains and valleys, seascapes, rivers, forests and historic buildings. The main base of festival is the beautiful harbour town of Dungarvan - a must see if you plan to visit Waterford.
Over the years the festival has been a showcase of the food of the region, as well as being host to some of our top chefs, fresh flavours, interesting influences and good ideas. This is one festival where there is definitely something for everyone - a full children’s programme, foraging trails, bus tours, cooking demos, dining experiences from high end to very casual plus of course our markets. Taste the best of the county with our local Farmer’s Market on Thursday, our weekly Country Market on Friday, the festival’s quayside market on Saturday with a seafood theme, all culminating in our famed Festival Market on Sunday when over 100 stalls fill the town centre to bring you the best of local and Irish artisan food. Bígí linn!
