2026 marks the 15th anniversary of Ashburton Food Festival, aligning with Dartmoor National Park’s 75th birthday. This year’s theme celebrates the moor’s food culture.

To mark the occasion, we’ve put together an extra special programme of events. This includes The Dartmoor Plate dinner with some amazing guest chefs and a range of expert-led masterclasses on food and drink.

The festival will also feature new spaces, live music, children’s activities, and more than 50 local food stalls from across the county.

On Friday 11th we host The Dartmoor Feast at 7pm at The Dartmoor Lodge.

On Saturday 12th Join us for our street market with live music and family entertainment in the centre of Ashburton from 10am.
