Be part of the Big Eat Guernsey!
Small islands, big flavour

Plans for The Big Eat Guernsey 2026 are well underway, with a growing programme of exciting events and month-long menus already confirmed. As the festival continues to build momentum, we’d love to encourage more industry partners to take part.

Launching in April 2026, with a return in October, The Big Eat is a key opportunity to showcase Guernsey’s food and drink offering as part of a coordinated, high-profile campaign positioning the island as a leading foodie destination.

So far, there are more than 40 confirmed menus and events, many of which span multiple venues. We would love to add more!

  • Be part of a growing festival with strong partner engagement and confirmed activity.

  • Gain visibility through VisitGuernsey marketing, including increased prominence on our rebranded consumer website.

  • Benefit from ongoing PR activity, including visiting food journalists and influencers plus a London-based media event.

  • Feature on a dedicated festival website.

  • It's completely free to take part!

  • Benefit from strong media coverage already secured, with further exposure planned:
