2012 will be the sixth year of the food festival. Last years festival attracted thousands of people from across Hampshire. Southsea is an ideal location, with wide-open spaces and a traditional town centre combining to provide an excellent day out.

The events aim is to ensure that they remain a true food festival, a celebration of produce and most of all to remember that it’s a show for the public to enjoy. Come and meet the chefs from your favourite local restaurants, sample food and drink from local suppliers, and try the Farmers Market fare.

Southsea Food Festival will fill the Town Centre with colourful stalls giving visitors the chance to tantalise taste buds by exploring new foods, and to show how local food can be the very best that there is. A diverse showcase of top food grown by farmers from around the surrounding area will be on show, and available to buy. Local food businesses will be demonstrating their cuisine and food related products. The event promises to be a treat for amateur cooks and professionals alike, with interactive demos and free tasters abounding to ensure that everyone is kept entertained.
