Set in the leafy surroundings of Penlee Park, Penzance Food Festival showcases the best of West Cornwall’s food scene. Live-fire cooking, chef demonstrations, artisan producers, and craft drinks make for a relaxed weekend of eating and drinking.
Free entry means you can wander at your own pace — sampling smoked fish here, artisan cheese there, with a glass of Cornish wine to wash it down. The park setting gives it a village fete feel, but the quality of food on offer is anything but.
Part of a strong autumn food festival season in Cornwall, alongside Porthleven, Falmouth Oyster Festival, and the Great Cornish Food Festival in Truro.
