There’s nothing quite like the buzz of the Worthing Food and Drink Festival. Each year, thousands come together to enjoy incredible street food, local drinks, artisan produce and live entertainment at Steyne Gardens. But if there’s one thing we can’t control, it’s the British weather.
This year, though, we’re ready for it.
Bigger Marquee, Bigger Festival
For 2025, the festival team have invested in a marquee three times the size of previous years, along with a large beer tent. That means visitors can relax, eat, and drink under cover, safe from any unexpected showers. Whether the sun shines or the rain makes an appearance, the celebrations will carry on without a hitch.
A True Community Celebration
The festival is about more than just food and drink. It’s a celebration of Worthing itself — of our independent traders, our local makers, and the community that supports them. Having a bigger marquee and beer tent means more space for everyone to come together, connect and enjoy what makes our town special.
Why It Matters
Food festivals thrive on atmosphere, and nothing dampens spirits more than worrying about the weather. With the new set-up, we’re ensuring that the focus stays exactly where it should be: on amazing tastes, great company, and the unique Worthing vibe.
So grab your friends, bring your appetite, and head to Steyne Gardens on 13th & 14th September. Rain or shine, Worthing Food and Drink Festival 2025 promises to be the biggest and best yet.
This is what it means to Love Worthing.
