Garlic:

The Garlic Festival returns for another year of food, music and family fun

Set against a beautiful backdrop of rolling green hills and farmland, the Garlic Festival is located just outside of Newchurch at the heart of the stunning Isle of Wight.

Food glorious food!
The show is food and entertainment at its very best. A vast array of eats, treats, sights and sounds to suit all tastes and ages.

There are huge garlic and food marquees, cooking demonstrations from top Island chefs in the all new theatre kitchen, children’s entertainers, archery and a giant fun-fair.

Enjoy hundreds of Arts and Craft stalls and scrummy produce to tempt your taste buds.

Live entertainment for all the family
There are businesses and market stalls, talented animals and arena entertainment. Plus, live music on the big stage, a big beer tent and straw bales so you can relax and enjoy the atmosphere.

This year the line up includes Kiki Dee and Jim Diamond.

The Island’s biggest summer show
At the heart of the festival is Britain’s best most pungent garlic, produced right here on the Isle of Wight, in Newchurch by the multi-award winning Garlic Farm. As ever, it’s not just garlic and amazing garlic products. Island food compares with the world’s best; meats, vegetables, cheese, honey, wine, cider and juices.

The Isle of Wight Garlic Festival is the Island’s biggest summer show, and possibly one of the best days out for all the family.
