Lymington's Seafood Festival celebrates 10 years as the South Coast's ultimate foodie event!

Lymington Seafood Festival celebrates its 10^th birthday this year and will be throwing a festival to remember. Crammed full of great food, the best local chefs and cooking experiences. There’s a new drinks stage, street performers and live music to get everyone up dancing.

Expect sell-out vibes, stunning Solent views and around 100 incredible seafood dishes — from lobster, scallops and oysters to seafood tacos, monkfish and Nordic smoked salmon cooked over fire.

Watch top local chefs live on stage, led by Luke Holder, Lime Wood HH&Co, alongside the High Street Kitchen’s Gavin Barnes, Leo Champion from the Montagu Arms and Cambium’s Dylan James. TV foodie Chris Bavin returns to host the Chefs Stage and Cookery School, where you can sharpen your skills — or cheer on budding master chefs in the Big Careys Cook Off.

New for 2026: the Drinks Stage. Dive into craft beer with Melissa Cole, explore sparkling wines with Helena Nicklin, or try outrageously good crisp pairings with Neil Ridley, the “Crisp Sommelier.”

Add street food, local craft drinks and live music — from soul and Motown to Friday night headliners Ultimate Coldplay — and you’ve got the South Coast’s ultimate summer foodie party.
