Big Festival welcome

Shetland Food Festival

Shetland produces some wonderful food: exceptional lamb, fine beef, superbly fresh fish and shellfish and some more unusual specialities such as seawater oatcakes, Shetland Black potatoes and more-ish fudge!

We felt that a celebration of all this was long overdue, so the first-ever Shetland Food Festival was held in early October 2008. We hope that it will be the first of many. The next festival is likely to take place between Friday 2 October and Sunday 11 October 2009 but these dates have yet to be confirmed. We hope you’ll be able to join us then.
