The South Downs Food Festival is returning to Stansted Park this weekend, bringing two days of food, drink and celebration to the Hampshire estate.
The event takes place on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 June 2026, from 10.30am until 5pm.
Set in the grounds of Stansted Park Estate, near Rowlands Castle, the festival will showcase some of the region’s finest food and drink producers.
The historic mansion will provide the backdrop for a weekend celebrating local ingredients, artisan makers and the flavours of the South Downs.
Visitors will be able to explore a vibrant marketplace featuring farmers, foragers, fermenters and independent food producers.
Seasonal fruit and vegetables, handcrafted goods, charcuterie, cheeses, kombucha, kefir, burgers and beer will all be among the attractions.
Organisers say the festival has quickly become a highlight of the UK’s culinary calendar, bringing together food lovers, families and local producers in one setting.
This year, the festival is partnering with Chefs In Schools and raising funds for Rowans Hospice, while also championing the producers and makers who help define the region’s food scene.
The event will be held at Stansted Park, Rowlands Castle, Hampshire, PO9 6DX.
