Truro Food Festival

Every September, the city centre of Truro Food Festival transforms into a buzzing celebration of Cornish cuisine and culture — and it’s one of Cornwall’s biggest foodie highlights of the year. Held on Lemon Quay and spilling into nearby streets in the heart of Truro, the festival features dozens of local food and drink stalls offering everything from fresh seafood and wood-fired pizzas to Cornish cheeses, vegan dishes and gourmet desserts. Throughout the five-day event, visitors can enjoy live cooking demos from top Cornish chefs, browse artisan produce, sip craft beers, ciders and Cornish gin at pop-up bars, and soak up the lively atmosphere with live music, family-friendly entertainment and interactive workshops. With free daytime entry, a diverse foodie offering and a festive vibe right in Cornwall’s capital, Truro Food Festival is a must-visit for anyone looking to sample the best of Cornwall’s culinary scene.
