Set against the iconic backdrop of Ben Lomond, this year’s festival promises to be our most delicious yet. While we’re keeping our star-studded line-up of culinary talent under wraps for just a little longer, you can expect a jam-packed schedule of live entertainment and mouth-watering experiences.

What’s on the Menu?

• The Gourmet Market: Explore a massive selection of local producers, artisan makers, and international street food
• Live Cooking Demonstrations: Live cooking demos with Tony Alberti
• Foraging workshops: With Sharon from Wander and Wonder (Saturday only)
• Family Fun: From funfair rides to kids’ activities and our playpark, there’s plenty to keep the little ones entertained, and we are dog-friendly too, so you can even bring the furry family members!
• The Great Outdoors: Enjoy your treats in our picnic areas, with the best views in Scotland, or take a cruise around the loch with Sweeneys Cruises, direct from our Pontoon, or hire a kayak, pedalo or cycle from Loch Lomond Leisure, located on our beach.

Tickets are FREE, but registration is recommended to help us manage capacity and ensure everyone has a great day out.

Don’t miss out on the highlight of Scotland’s September calendar, kicking off Scotland’s Food & Drink Fortnight.
