Dartmouth Food Festival - Friday 24th to Sunday 26th October 2026 -

Each October, Dartmouth Food Festival brings the town to life, as locals and visiting chefs gather along the streets and waterfront to celebrate the very best of food and wine. It’s a vibrant few days of flavour, community, and creativity - and a moment in the calendar we always look forward to at The Seahorse.

The 2026 festival is currently in the works. Keep an eye out for announcements, and be sure to save the date of the 24th - 26th October for this year’s event - it’s set to be bigger and better than ever.
