The festival brings together chefs, cuisines and cooking classes.

If you suffer from food FOMO, we have an answer. Taste of London returns to The Regent’s Park. Running from Wednesday 17 to Sunday 21 June 2026, it will showcase London’s most exciting restaurants and bring together 160 artisan producers and exhibitors.

This year’s restaurant line-up features 30 restaurants serving more than 130 dishes, including two Daily Specials with rotating menus. New faces for 2026 include Harry’s, Hakkasan and Ixchel. Festival favourites returning to the line-up include Los Mochis.

The festival will host up-and-coming chefs with live demos and masterclasses. This year, expect rapper-turned-gourmet Big Zuu and award-winning writer and cook Melissa Thompson to take to the stage. South London chef Nathaniel Mortley, better known as Natty Can Cook, will bring the heat to Saturday’s BBQ Cook School.

It’s not just about food, as there will also be drinks. St-Germain returns for its second year, serving up Germain Spritz cocktails and offering visitors a chance to play pétanque. Plus, DJs from KISS, including Matchstick, Ace, AJ King, Esi, Justin Wilkes and more, will keep the party vibes flowing.

Taste Sessions this year will feature drinks masterclasses and talks, shining a light on sustainability with Wasted Wine Club, Inflorescence Wines, Find & Foster Cider and more. Wine lovers can also enjoy La Vieille Ferme.

Brand new for 2026 is Taste of the City, celebrating London’s diverse culinary scene with one-of-a-kind events across the capital from 15 to 21 June 2026. The programme kicks off with a teaser party on Thursday 7 May at JOIA Rooftop in Battersea, featuring chefs Henrique Sá Pessoa from JOIA, Chris Golding from NIJŪ, Adam Iglesias from Prince Arthur Belgravia, and Carolyn Or from Chet’s at The Hoxton.

Taste of London started in 2004 and is a staple in the city’s calendar. The 2026 event is expected to attract more than 55,000 visitors, who can sample everything from street food to MICHELIN-starred menus. Whatever cuisine you’re craving, we are confident that you will find it at the festival. The options include Afghan, American, Caribbean, Chinese, Indian, Italian, Korean, Spanish, South American and more.
