Dorset Food and Arts Festival

The Dorset Food and Arts Festival is back on the menu for 2026, and ready to champion the best of Dorset and showcase a great line up of local food, drink, art, craft and community talent. Join Dorset Food & Drink on Saturday 1 August 2026 from 10am until 4pm on the Great Field in Poundbury, as they bring together a FREE mini ‘pop-up’ festival market! It’s the perfect opportunity to shop for a wide selection of delicious products and artisan crafts. Grab a bite to eat and enjoy a tipple as you shop with local stallholders, producers, and makers - offering tasty food and drink, handmade gifts, art, and beautiful crafts. The icing on the cake is that when you shop at events like this, you get to MEET the amazing people who make, bake, farm, grow, cook, preserve, pickle, and serve you with all this local loveliness - many of them award-winning!
