This year's Abergavenny Food Festival will play host to some of the brightest lights of the food world

Celebrate the conviviality and sociability that surrounds eating and drinking, whether with friends or strangers and enjoy real Welsh hospitality with Abergavenny's own burgeoning food community.

The extensive markets, situated in the centre of this historic border town, spill into the streets and lanes and feature the best producers from Wales, the Marches, and further afield.

Venues are situated close together and include the Market Hall, where stallholders are all 'True Taste' award-winners, the Cheese and Wine Show, and the Fish Market at The Priory Centre.There's lots on offer too for families with young children in the grounds of the ancient Castle, including a Food Academy with hands-on workshops, plus story-telling, comedy and live music.

In addition to the main markets there are individually ticketed Masterclasses, Tutored Tastings and Talks showcasing some of the most skilled, passionate and knowledgeable practitioners in the country alongside local and regional talent.

"For two days in September the little town is home to a food festival so mystically lovely, so unspoiled and evanescent that it's like a farmers' market in Brigadoon".
Tim Hayward, The Guardian
