My annual callout for food events, or at least the hope that there’ll be food events

There’s no denying that the food events landscape in Ireland has changed.

Over the course of 2020, we lost pretty much every major (and minor) outdoor festival. Street gatherings were nixed, field days parked and while some markets continued, they did so with enhanced restrictions and altered capacities.

But I’m not losing hope!

We’ve moved to online events and demos, talks and gatherings. Thanks to Facebook Live, Zoom, Teams, YouTube we’ve seen talks, gatherings, demos and more all happen in the virtual sense.

So, I’m putting the call out, as I’ve done every January for the last few years to fill up the list of Irish events and festivals for 2021.
