Now in its sixth year, the Waterford Harvest Festival returns between September 12th and 14th to showcase and celebrate the best of what Waterford and the South East food producers have to offer.

Over the weekend, the streets around Waterford City will be filled with cookery demonstrations, food tours and films, workshops and restaurant trails to suit every taste. Young and young at heart alike will be able to find something to whet their appetites throughout Waterford’s city centre, the Viking Triangle and the three City Centre Parks.

New events to the programme include The Big Taste in John Robert’s Square, The New Street Garden Party and Wyse Weekend, along with the welcome return of the Enterprising Food Village, Picnic & Play in the Park and The Viking Rocks Craft Beerfest.

SUPPORTING LOCAL

Chairman of the festival, Paul Nowlan, is anticipating another excellent weekend highlighting local food produce. “We are extremely excited with the plans for September’s Harvest Festival. Personally, I am delighted that this year we are focusing on highlighting, promoting and supporting the food producers in the region,” he said.

“We want to make it a city wide festival that encompasses city centre retail, the historic Viking triangle and amenities such as New Street Gardens, Wyse Park and the People’s Park. We hope everyone supports their local food producers and enjoys what will be a wonderful weekend.”
