The Blas na hÉireann events take place against the backdrop of the Dingle Peninsula Food Festival.

The Blas events take place from Thursday 1st – Sunday 4th 2026 over a weekend which has grown to be one of the most recognised and well attended food events in Ireland.

It is a busy and fun weekend in Dingle and we are delighted that many finalist producers will be making the trip to attend the awards and meet with your colleagues in the food industry as well as the buyers and press that will be joining us on this weekend.

We have reached out through www.dingle-peninsula.ie to ask their members to share their availability and have listed them below. We will continue to update in the run up to the awards
