No organiser page or Boscastle village source currently confirms a 2026 date for Boscastle Food, Art & Crafts Festival. A Saturday 3 October date appears in some older listings, but no current source supports it.
Past editions brought local food, art and craft activity to Boscastle, but the programme, admission and organiser details for a forthcoming edition have not yet been announced.
Boscastle is worth the trip regardless of whether a festival is running. The village is built around one of the few natural harbours on this stretch of the north coast, protected by stone walls and a dog-leg entrance cut in 1584 that shelters it from the Atlantic. The National Trust owns much of the surrounding land, and the South West Coast Path runs straight through the village, with Tintagel about five miles north. The village was badly damaged by flooding in 2004, when the Valency and Jordan rivers overflowed after sudden heavy rain, and was rebuilt over the following years.
