2018 International Food Festival

As well as more than 25 food trucks providing delectable cuisine from all over the world, the event will also present a full  program of cultural performances including belly dancing, Akwaaba drumming, Polynesian dancing, and a Latin fusion band.  There will also be free children’s activities including Batik Art and lantern making activities.

City of Rockingham Mayor, Barry Sammels said the International Food Festival had proven to be a big hit on the City’s annual calendar over the past several years. “When we hosted the first festival in 2016 we attracted about 4,000 people. Last year it was 7,000. The interest we’ve already had for this year’s event suggests there will be even more people attending, so we’re very pleased by how popular the festival has become.”

“There’s nothing like sharing food to create a sense of community.  The International Food Festival is a celebration of our City’s multicultural influences, and a great opportunity for people to come out, enjoy a great night down by the beach, and meet new friends while trying some delicious foods from around the world.”

Some of the food vendors on the night include Sally’s Satay, Brotzeit, Moroccan Food Station, Mezcal, The Phat Pharoah, Bollygood Foods, Sweet Dream Foods, Miam Miam, Juiceday Events, The Pasta Truck, Miss Ferrola, Churro Central, Rajun Cajuns, Divine Flute and Pepper(steak) Tree.

As part of the City’s Summer Series of events, the International Food Festival is smoke-free and alcohol-free.
