The Old Butter Roads Festival celebrates the food heritage & food producers of Cork. Traditionally all butter roads led to Shandon and in 2026 we gather there to mark Cork's legacy as the larder of the world. The programme weaves in butter making and coopering, cheesemakers and churning songs, spiced beef and black pudding ... and much more!
Join us to celebrate Cork's rich food heritage and contemporary food culture.
