A Taste of Winchester 2026

Winchester will celebrate its vibrant culinary scene again as A Taste of Winchester returns for a delicious fortnight of food and drink. Running from 22 June to 5 July 2026, the festival will build on the success of last year’s event.

A Taste of Winchester offers an exciting opportunity to experience the very best of the city and district’s local talent. Restaurants, cafés, pubs, retailers, producers, and makers will come together to present a diverse array of events, tastings, special menus, and local and global flavours.

In 2026, events range from urban foraging adventures to alfresco summer feasts. Discover the full line-up for A Taste of Winchester 2026.

During this foodie fortnight, you can introduce your tastebuds to something new, learn about the provenance of what's on your plate, see behind the scenes in some of our well-loved bars and restaurants, or even forage for new local flavours for your own cooking.
