Surrey does food festivals well, and 2026 has plenty to get stuck into — from big two-day weekenders to relaxed local gatherings. Here's our pick, starting with the one that took our Best Small Festival award.

FeastyFest 2026 — our Best Small Festival

Held in Cheam Park on 12–13 September 2026, FeastyFest is Surrey's biggest independent food-and-music festival and our reigning Best Small Festival. Over 100 street-food traders, two stages of live music, bars, tastings and a free Kids World zone make it a brilliant family day out — and it's a not-for-profit supporting local causes. It's the one to build a weekend around. See the full details or book tickets.

More Surrey food events to look out for

Beyond FeastyFest, keep an eye on these across the year (check each organiser for confirmed 2026 dates before you travel):

  • Taste of the Caribbean, Guildford — a lively celebration of Caribbean food and drink.
  • Thai Festival, Stoke Park (Guildford) — a two-day taste of Thailand, usually over the summer.
  • Surrey Oaks Beer Festival — a favourite for craft-beer fans in late spring.
