Highlights of the 2013 Dingle Peninsula Food Festival include a taste trail in over 60 outlets, where festival goers can purchase taste tickets and sample local cuisine delights in locations that vary from pubs and galleries to shop and restaurants.

There will be live cookery demonstrations in the beautiful old St. James church along with food workshops, where you can learn about coffee, chocolate making, bee keeping, hen keeping and cheese making.

Last year's free children's entertainment included pizza making classes on the Big Blue bus, a Hungry Caterpillar picnic and a Mad Hatter's tea party. There will be live music and on street entertainment. The Dingle Food Festival will once again host the finals of the prestigious Blas na hEireann, National Irish Food Awards.

So come along for a fantastic festival of food and family fun!
