Southend Food and Drink Festival 2025

The Southend Food and Drink Festival is launching this autumn, proudly brought to you by Southend City BID. The ten day event is set to be a flavour packed celebration of everything Southend’s vibrant food and drink scene had to offer.

Running from Friday 24th October - Sunday 2nd November 2025, the festival will spotlight some of the city’s most loved venues, with exclusive offers, special menus, and over £700 in prizes up for grabs!

How does it work? Festival goers can pick up a trail map and postcard from any participating venue, enjoy their exclusive offer, and collect a sticker for each visit. Collect three stickers on your postcard by the end of the festival for your chance to win from a selection of exciting prizes.

Prizes to be won include a meal for two at Molo Lounge, a ‘best of both’ box from Wilma’s, a VIP booth at Popworld, afternoon tea at The Royal Hotel, and much more!
