We're shaking things up, Sheffield🍉
Fresh July dates, new line-ups and several delightfully daft ways to spend an afternoon in the heart of Sheffield. On July 17th & 18th, we're heading to Graves Park for our third annual celebration.
Over the last two years, thousands of you have helped us bring together Sheffield's food lovers, local makers, independent traders, musicians, entertainers and families for a warm, community-led weekend in Graves Park.
Whether you've joined us before or this will be your first visit, we can't wait to keep growing as an event and a community.
Anyway, without spoiling too much, here's what's on the cards for 2027...
- FOUR Live Stages, all included with your ticket - from local bands and talented musicians to leading chefs, magicians, circus performers and interactive family shows. It's not all about the food.
- NEW Free Activities & Roaming Entertainment - Even more ways to get stuck in throughout the weekend, plus comedy, stilt walkers and other unexpected encounters dotted around the festival grounds.
- NEW Street Food, Bar & Markets Line-ups - International flavours, global delicacies, small-batch goods and handcrafted drinks from Yorkshire's food and drink scene
Sample cuisines from across the globe, browse artisan goodies, take your time wandering the grounds, then settle into a deckchair while local musicians soundtrack your afternoon. Alternatively, you could always enter your doggo into Wally Woof's Family Dog Show, battle your friends in our Inflatable Banana Jousting Arena, or claim victory in a series of sports day-inspired races and throwing contests.
Whatever you feel like, really.
Limited Early Bird Tickets are out now.
Stamp the dates in, invite your favourite people and we'll see you in July, Sheffield.

And for those with a sweet tooth? Expect warm churros dusted in cinnamon sugar, freshly made crêpes, indulgent cookie dough and plenty of other tempting treats.
Take your time, follow your nose and see where your appetite takes you. You might just discover a new favourite.
👨🍳 Live Cookery Theatre
Our Cookery Theatre returns across the weekend with a fresh-schedule of live demonstrations.
Over the years, our stage has welcomed MasterChef stars, Head Chefs from Michelin Guide-recommended restaurants and chefs recognised among the country's finest, including National Chef of the Year honourees.
Enjoy 10+ masterclasses from a line-up of regional chefs, sharing the recipes, techniques and little secrets behind some of your favourite dishes.
🍹 Independent Drink
Our independent bars will be pouring everything from chilled ciders and small-batch cocktails to speciality rums, gins and a glass or two of fizz.
Beer lovers can make themselves at home at The Soldiers' Ale House, brought to you in partnership with Vocation Brewery. Expect IPAs, lagers and cask favourites served fresh on draught.
And for those steering clear of alcohol, you'll find teas, coffees, juices and smoothies prepared to order.
Once you've found your drink of choice, there's a deckchair waiting in front of the main stage.
🛍️ Artisan Markets
Our Artisan Markets bring together makers, bakers, artists and producers from across Yorkshire.
Browse wheels of Yorkshire cheese, cured meats, homemade fudge, marshmallows, pies, fiery hot sauces and freshly roasted coffee. Then wander a little further to discover handmade jewellery, artwork, crafts, accessories and gifts for the home.
Take a moment to meet the talented makers behind some of the region's most exciting independent businesses.
🎵 Live Music
From jazz, pop and rock to soul, funk and blues, our Live Music Stage brings together a lively mix of genres throughout the weekend.
Discover up-and-coming local musicians, enjoy a lively mix of original music and sing along to familiar favourites as our headlining tribute acts take to the stage.
Enjoy an afternoon soundtracked by independent tunes and classic covers spanning the last 40 years.
🌶️ The Sizzling Showdown Arena
Things get a little competitive in the Sizzling Showdown Arena. Hosted by renowned comedian Neil Frost, expect a healthy dose of silliness, unusual challenges and plenty of opportunities to get involved.
Go head-to-head with other festival-goers in the Foodie Olympics and Chilli Challenge, sign your pooch up to Wally Woof's Family Dog Show, or grab a seat and test your luck at Pies Down, Eyes Down Bingo with Barry Bingo.

Our Entertainment Arena welcomes Matthew J Magic & friends for six shows each day, combining sleight of hand, comedy and circus-inspired performances.
From clever illusions to unexpected audience participation, you never quite know what's coming next.

Across the weekend, little ones can get stuck into the Foodie Clue Quest Scavenger Hunt, colouring activities, circus skills workshops and the full traditional fun fair, alongside daily performances from Magic Matt, of course!
Keep those eyes peeled as you wander around the grounds. You might bump into stilt-walking chefs, wacky comedy duos, or a few other eccentric characters. Don't forget to grab a photo or two!
