One of the most popular Cardiff Festival events, the Cardiff International Food and Drink Festival is a food lover's paradise and returns to Cardiff Bay, with a glorious spread of farmhouse cheese, handmade chocolates, specialist liqueurs and much, much more to tempt the taste buds.

Set on the waterfront in Cardiff Bay, Roald Dahl Plass will be bursting with tempting exhibits promoting the very finest in food and drink from around Wales and the rest of the world. Visitors will be invited to enjoy a feast of sights, sounds and smells, sampling and buying products whilst enjoying free music and entertainment.
