Following the success of 2015's inaugural Guernsey International Food Festival, the foodie's paradise is back this September with more exciting culinary indulgences. This festival, taking place from Sept. 23 - Oct. 2, 2016, is a celebration of the island's rich local produce and gastronomic heritage while paying homage to influences from the international stage.

Jean-Christophe Novelli is the celebrity ambassador, leading events across the island from farmers' markets to cook-offs, culinary master classes, chef residencies and wine tastings. Two of Guernsey's finest hotels, The Duke of Richmond Hotel and The Old Government House Hotel & Spa, Guernsey's only five-star property, will be participating by showcasing the island's bounty of gourmet food and varied hospitality.
