Lichfield's three-day summer food and drink festival in the city centre over the August bank holiday weekend.

Lichfield's main food festival runs for three days over the August bank holiday weekend, with stalls of local and regional food and drink, street food and makers spread through the city centre.

It is organised by Lichfield District Council, which brought it back for 2026 after what it described as strong footfall and trader numbers at the 2025 summer festival. Entry is free, and for 2026 the council funded pitches for new local traders and gave small grants for community fringe activities.
