The Ballymaloe Festival of Food celebrates Irish food, seasonal cooking and the people behind it. Set in East Cork, part of Ireland's Ancient East, the festival brings together chefs, producers and cooks to explore the journey of great food from farm to fork in a relaxed and welcoming setting.

Three days of immersive food experiences designed for curious cooks and passionate eaters. Expect inspiring cookery demonstrations, tastings, workshops, masterclasses and pop-up dining experiences that celebrate flavour, creativity and skill.

Meet chefs and food producers from Ireland and beyond as they share their knowledge, ideas and favourite recipes. Watch, learn, ask questions and discover the stories behind exceptional food.

Sustainability is central to the festival, with a focus on seasonal ingredients, thoughtful sourcing and meaningful conversations about how food is grown, prepared and enjoyed from farm to fork.

Enjoy food trucks, festival shopping and a lively social atmosphere throughout the weekend. As evening falls, live bands, DJs, dancing and a late bar keep the festival buzzing, bringing great food & great craic together in one place.
