Artisan producers will once again showcase handmade cheeses, breads, charcuterie, pies, chutneys, pickles and sweet treats.

The festival’s drinks offering continues to grow, with specialist traders serving craft beer, artisan gin, local spirits and international wines.

Cocktail bars, mocktail stands and coffee vendors will also be dotted throughout the park, ensuring there’s something for every taste.

Across the three days, visitors can enjoy a full programme of live music from local bands and performers in the dedicated entertainment marquee, promising a vibrant backdrop to the food and drink experience.

Families will find plenty to keep children entertained, with the festival’s dedicated Children’s Festival area offering face painting, jewellery making, inflatables and more.

Alongside food and drink traders, community groups and local organisations will be present throughout the weekend, sharing information, activities and opportunities to get involved in local initiatives.

Marion Atkinson, Leader of Sefton, said: “The Food and Drink Festival is always a special weekend in Southport and 2026 will be no exception!

“I am looking forward to seeing Victoria Park packed out with families enjoying themselves, discovering new dishes, and vitally supporting local and regional businesses.

“This event is a real boost for Southport and Sefton. Our local shops, cafes and restaurants benefit from the footfall, and many small independent traders have the opportunity to reach thousands of new customers.”
