Paisley Food & Drink Festival, the annual two-day, outdoor taste extravaganza will take place for 2025 on Friday 25th and Saturday 26th April in Paisley’s Abbey Close and Bridge Street.

Make sure you arrive hungry to this year’s free-to-attend event, where street food traders, artisan makers and licensed bars will be waiting to tickle your tastebuds with delicious dishes and drinks from around the world.

This year’s festival has been supported by funding from EventScotland, part of VisitScotland which will allow the event to take place over a larger area, expanding out onto Bridge Street and Bridge Street car park to offer plenty more food, drink and entertainment options for visitors to enjoy.

Renfrewshire CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale) will also make a welcome return to the festival this year. Their popular Beer Tent will be located in Bridge Street car park for visitors to sample some of the finest ales and craft beers sourced from across Scotland.

The 2025 festival will see more traders and vendors showcasing their wares with more than 50 traders offering an array of tasty treats for visitors to try. Options for a range of dietary requirements will be catered for as well as some fantastic kids menu options.

More local Renfrewshire businesses will take part in the festival than ever before including Two Towns Down who will have a bar in Abbey Close, Upper East Side and The Bungalow.

The Keg will also have a bar tent in Abbey Close with a brilliant range of bands playing live music for people to enjoy with a drink and a bite.

If chilled out vibes are what you’re after, you can hang out at The Brew Hub tented area on the grass at Cotton Street.

Visitors can expect to see returning festival favourites including ice-cream and churro bar, Loop and Scoop, Scozzese woodfired pizza, Lemon Squeezy and Fries Guys. While the Fizzbuzz prosecco van and Caribbean bar, Rum Shack are sure to offer a tasty tipple for the grown-up crowd.

Paisley Food and Drink Festival is known as a great family event and this year is no different. There will be plenty to keep the kids entertained with inflatable play area, giant games station, face painting, food, seed-bomb making, craft and music workshops and street performances while you relax on the deck chairs by the river.

Helping to create that chilled festival vibe, The Bungalow will keep the crowds entertained with a range of live music planned across both days.

It’s set to be a delectable day out for all – you can even bring your dog!
