About
The date has been confirmed for Southsea Food Festival 2024! Portsmouth's ultimate family foodie event returns on 20 and 21 July, with stalls from some of the best food and drink producers in the area.
There will be scores of food and drink stalls along Palmerston, Clarendon and Osborne Roads, as well as Avenue de Caen. A whole host of local restaurants and businesses will be displaying their wares, offering food from the South Coast that takes inspiration from far flung corners of the world.

With an acoustic live stage featuring local musical talent, family entertainment, and loads of great tips from chefs and industry experts, get ready for a great day out!
