Food Festivals & Food Events in Goa
24 events coming up across Goa — mostly food (24).
Food events in Goa range from state festivals to dinners for twelve. Goa Tourism's 2026–27 calendar, with dates still tentative, lists a Sea Food Festival and the Ramponkaranche Fest in Arambol in December, the Food and Cultural Festival in Margao in January 2027 and the Spirit of Goa Festival in Colva in April. Church feasts bring food fairs, the largest at Old Goa around 3 December, and Christmas is the season of kuswar sweets. Week to week, look for supper clubs and tasting menus in Assagao and Siolim, feni and cocktail evenings in Panaji, and guided food trails such as the Friday morning walk through Mapusa market. Entry to public festivals is usually free and you pay by the plate. This page lists food festivals, pop-ups and food walks across Goa.
