The Festive Good Food Show returns to the NEC in Birmingham from 26 to 29 November 2026, timed for Christmas food shopping and seasonal ideas. Visitors can watch chefs cook live, join workshops, and taste and buy from producers, from cheese and charcuterie to preserves, gifts and festive drinks.
The organisers’ line-up across their shows includes James Martin, Si King and Lisa Faulkner, with cookery demonstrations and interviews, although they have not yet said which chefs will appear at the festive show or on which day.
It is a good place to stock up for Christmas and pick up ideas for the big day. The NEC has on-site parking and its own railway station, Birmingham International, so it is easy to reach for a day out.
