Waterford Festival of Food

About Us

Food Lovers and Fun Seekers Wanted in West Waterford!

Waterford Festival of Food centred in Dungarvan is a mecca for food lovers and fun seekers particularly during the middle of April. This beautiful coastal town of about 9,000 people has a pretty harbour used by leisure craft of all shapes and sizes and is further enhanced by the majestic Comeragh mountains in its background. The April Festival of Food’s programme has proven to be the perfect mix of free events and ticketed ones, an equally perfect mix of high end dining opportunities and casual bistro experiences and it certainly offers something for all ages, including:

Restaurant Trails
Cookery Demonstrations
Foraging Trails
Food Producers Tours
Workshops
Seminars
Story Telling
Walking Tours
Picnic in the Park
Farmers and Country Market & more

Its ethos is one of supporting local, local food producers, local restaurants & cafes and local retailers. The festival team is also drawn from the local community, so ticket collectors, parking attendants, ushers, guides and stewards are all local volunteers from across the town and region.
