Camberwell Green, London SE5 – Saturday, May 17, 2025, 11:00 AM – 7:00 PM
SBC Marketing London is thrilled to announce the return of one of South London’s most anticipated community events — the Camberwell Food Festival — a vibrant, family-friendly celebration of global cuisines, live music, and community spirit, held on Camberwell Green this Saturday, May 17.
Back by popular demand, the festival will once again transform Camberwell Green into a bustling hub of international flavours, culture, and entertainment. This year’s edition promises to be bigger and better, offering attendees a dynamic day out filled with tastes from around the world.
A World of Flavours in One Place
With over 80 food stalls, the festival is a culinary passport to global cuisines — from the bold spices of Asia and the rich traditions of Africa, to Caribbean delicacies and sweet treats from the Middle East and Latin America. Food lovers are invited to indulge in a diverse and delicious array of dishes, all prepared by passionate local chefs and vendors.
Live Entertainment & Family Fun
Food is just one part of the festival’s appeal. Visitors can enjoy a packed schedule of live music performances, with genres ranging from soulful acoustic sets to rhythmic world beats — setting the perfect mood for a community celebration.
The event is also family-friendly, featuring free games, creative workshops, and arts and crafts stalls for children, making it an inclusive experience for all ages.
Spotlight: The Camberwell Food Walk
One of the festival’s headline experiences is the much-loved Camberwell Food Walk, a curated tasting tour through some of SE5’s best-loved eateries. Led by former local councillor Radha Burgess and Camberwell Food Walks co-founder Susie Giles, participants gain a unique behind-the-scenes glimpse into the neighbourhood’s culinary gems — sampling signature dishes and hearing inspiring stories from restaurant owners themselves.
Although tickets for this Saturday’s walk are now sold out, food fans are encouraged to join the waiting list for future walks later in the year.
Supporting Local Talent & Small Businesses
Beyond the food and festivities, the Camberwell Food Festival is a powerful platform for promoting local independent businesses. By connecting residents with small food vendors and restaurateurs, the event fosters community pride and economic support — key goals championed by SBC Marketing London.
