Seaham Food Festival returned for its 2026 edition on a baking August day, bringing more than 130 stalls to the County Durham coast. The free-to-enter event was headlined by Saturday Kitchen favourite Matt Tebbutt.
Star chefs and regional food favourites
Top chefs including Francesco Mattana were among the attractions, while popular North East vendors such as Redheads Mac and Cheese and Acropolis Street Food served up their usual fare. Visitors could also find a wide range of treats, from baklava to Armenian street food.
