West Waterford Festival of Food to return in June 2022

It's been confirmed that the West Waterford Festival of Food is to take place from 10-12 June 2022.

Typically an April event, organisers say the new date is to allow time for producers, chefs, suppliers, growers and brewers to prepare, following the upheaval of the last two years.

Programme details of the 13th annual event will be released in the coming weeks.

CEO Maeve Quill said:

We are delighted to announce that West Waterford Festival of Food will return in 2022, having been sadly missed from our calendars over the past two years. This three-day foodie paradise is incredibly close to the hearts of all those involved, the local West Waterford area, and of course the wider foodie community

The festival is seen as a reflection of Waterford's strong culinary reputation, with the area having been named the winner of Foodie Destinations back in 2019. Maeve added that "it is incredible news that we can once again shine a spotlight on the food from West Waterford, and the amazing culinary talent that we have.”
