Sunday 8 October 2023

10.30 am – 4.30 pm

Wells Food Festival returned on Sunday, 8 October to celebrate once again Somerset’s rich and diverse food and drink.

Thank you to all our sponsors, volunteers and traders who made the 2023 festival such a successful day and congratulations to all the winners of the stall awards.

The artisan market had almost 200 local traders selling food and drinks, street food and homewares in the Market Place, Town Hall, along the moat and in the recreation ground.

Also included was a selection of South West artisan food and drink producers from beyond Somerset.

English wine was featured again this year, with local vineyards represented, as well as those from further afield.

The children’s zone had some interactive fun and some kiddie-sized street food. Young visitors also enjoyed the Fun Kitchen cookery workshops and the children’s trail.

New for 2023 was Food for Thought, a dedicated area highlighting current, food related, social issues.


The next Wells Food Festival will be on Sunday, 13 October, 2024.
