The Temple Newsam Food Festival 2026: A Summertime Feast
LISTEN UP LEEDS
Ready for another feast at the mansion, ey?!
Those of you who joined us last year will know it was an absolute blast — and we can’t wait to do it all over again with you in 2026 at this stunning site.
You can expect an expanded offering of food and drink, top chefs, live entertainment, and bigger, bolder production throughout the weekend.
So kick back, take in the smells, the sights, and the sounds. Sip your favourite tipple and soak it all in with your loved ones.
…But as you’ll know, we do things a little differently at Temple Newsam Food Festival.
Yes — you’ll have heaps of top food producers to choose from.
Yes — there’ll be superb musicians on stage.
Yes — there’ll be live entertainment for all the family.
But you can also expect a sprinkle of wackiness. Mark our word.
Join us on August 15th–16th, 2026
*Join thousands for a summertime feast at the stunning Temple Newsam estate*
