Edinburgh Food Festival 2022
July 22 - July 31
Event Navigation
The 5th Edinburgh Food Festival returns to the Assembly George Square Gardens this July. The only Edinburgh food market festival held in the Scottish capital’s city centre, the 2019 festival has twice the schedule compared with last year’s event.
Festivalgoers can meet local producers, experience chef demonstrations and sample food from more than 20 stalls, featuring some of Scotland’s finest food and drink producers.
This is foodie Edinburgh paradise; the place to taste the full Scottish larder. Last year, some 25,000 visitors attended the festival and 2019 promises to be better and bigger.
