eat:Festivals are grown from the land around us. They bring the very best West Country food & drink producers and artisans together at festivals in town centres across Somerset, Gloucestershire, Bristol, Wiltshire, Devon, Dorset and Cornwall. 

At all our events you can buy local food & drink direct from the producers in a safe, welcoming, outdoor environment. Fresh good food has never been so important for our health and the strength of our community. 

​

  • Our layouts ensure we all have elbow room and space for conversation, seating and easy access 

  • Our stewards will be on hand to provide advice and guidance 

  • Dog friendly - in fact the whole family are welcome

  • Fully accessible for buggies, scooters and pushchairs  

  • Always a wide range of vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, alcohol free food & drink.  The festivals are designed to provide for all dietary choices. 

  • Ethics & traceability as standard. You get to meet the makers and find out all you want to know

  • A wide-range of free entertainment including DJs, buskers, strolling characters, performances and playfulness

  • Always free entry - no pre-booking, reserving tickets or faffing around

eat:Festivals work across the West Country. When we are working in East Devon we deliver the festivals under the 'Gate to Plate' brand, in collaboration with East Devon District Council.
