Description:
Get ready for a weekend of flavour, fire, and family fun at the Christchurch Cheese & Chilli Festival – one of the South Coast’s most loved food festivals, returning to the beautiful town of Christchurch.
This vibrant two-day event is a true celebration of great British food and drink, bringing together an incredible mix of artisan cheese producers, chilli growers, sauce makers, street food traders, and craft drink specialists from across the country. Whether you’re a hardened heat-seeker or simply love discovering new flavours, there’s something here for everyone.
Browse the bustling market stalls and sample everything from rich, creamy cheeses to dangerously hot chilli sauces (taste at your own risk!). Watch thrilling chilli-eating competitions, live cooking demonstrations, and enjoy a packed programme of live music and entertainment throughout the day. From sizzling street food and loaded fries to sweet treats and refreshing drinks, you’ll be spoilt for choice.
The Christchurch Cheese & Chilli Festival is proudly family-friendly, with plenty to keep children entertained too. Expect fairground rides, interactive activities, and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that makes it the perfect day out for all ages. Friendly dogs on leads are welcome, so the whole family can join the fun.
Set in a fantastic outdoor location, this festival isn’t just about food – it’s about community, discovery, and enjoying a brilliant summer weekend together. Come along with friends, bring the family, meet passionate producers, and experience the very best of cheese, chilli, and live entertainment.
Big flavours. Great vibes. An unmissable Christchurch event.
