Fall Flavours

A MONTH LONG Celebration of Food & Culture!

 

Fall Flavours Calendar

 

 



The Fall Flavours Festival features more than 75 culinary and cultural events taking place in communities across Prince Edward Island in September.

Our Signature Events feature the very best PEI has to offer and have been created exclusively for Fall Flavours. Some are small and intimate, others will draw a crowd ... all will delight.

You can join local hosts and pick potatoes, catch lobsters, harvest oysters or head off to Culinary Boot Camp. These are just a few samples of the many Hands on Experiences/Participatory Events that let you enjoy food from the source. Each experience offers an educational component with a local host, as well as a tasting and/or cooking opportunity.

There's a wide range of Culinary Events from which to choose. A feast of bar clams on the beach? Perhaps a brewmasters dinner with PEI produced handcrafted beers? And those are just for starters.

Visit local Fall Flavours Festival restaurants which offer Island Cuisine showcasing the best of land and sea. Menus have been created exclusively for the Fall Flavours Festival and are available by contacting the restaurants directly for reservations. Reservations are required.

Advance tickets are required for all events (with a few small exceptions).If you have questions, please call us at 1-866-960-9912. Just remember to book before you arrive to make sure your spot is saved.
