The Edinburgh stop of the touring Foodies Festival: three days of chef demos, food and drink stalls and headline music in Inverleith Park.

Foodies Festival is a touring food, drink and music festival, and Edinburgh is one of its stops. Over three days in Inverleith Park there are chef demonstrations from TV, MasterChef and local chefs, cake and bake sessions, a drinks theatre, street food and an artisan market, kids' cookery classes and evening music from headline acts.

Tickets are sold by day or for the whole weekend. Upgraded tickets add fast-track entry, a VIP area and front-row viewing for the music stage.

Opening times are usually 2pm–10pm on Friday, 11am–9pm on Saturday and 11am–8pm on Sunday.
