Sussex Food Festival

The producers of Gin Fest introduce a brand new indoor food and drink event, Sussex Food Festival.

Coming to Brighton Saturday 12th April 2025.

The Sussex Food Festival takes place inside the iconic DoubleTree by Hilton Brighton Metropole on the Brighton seafront. Whatever the weather, you’ll be warm and dry inside the hotel’s event space.

Delicious Food

We are carefully curating a tasty variety of sweet and savoury artisan food for you to enjoy while you sip your drinks from the bar. 

Your favourite independent restaurants will also be running pop-ups, selling their classic dishes so you have a chance to try a large selection from Sussex's best cuisines.

Drink

You can compliment your lunch or dinner with the perfect G&T served from our Gins of the World bar, try one of our unique cocktails, or head straight for the craft beer bar. You can even try a glass of the award-winning Sussex sparkling wine.

Sweet Treats

At the Sussex Food Festival, expect an array of sweet treats from local businesses, including gourmet biscuits, artisan chocolates, and indulgent cakes, all showcasing the best of local ingredients.
