Savour Cowichan Festival is an annual event that celebrates and grapesshowcases the Cowichan Valley’s spectacular cornucopia of locally grown and produced food and drink. For ten days, 40 artisanal food and beverage producers will be hosting the world at more than 60 epicurean events throughout the Cowichan Valley. Every day you’ll be able to visit local operations and talk to experts who are passionate about what they do, like master winemakers, cider makers, brewmasters and sommeliers. You’ll be able to participate behind the scenes, ask questions and of course, you’re encouraged to liberally sample along the way!

About half of the Savour Cowichan events take place in many of the area’s fine restaurants. Here you can indulge your taste buds with seasonal fare and be spoiled with special drink and food pairings and winemakers’ dinners. You’ll also have a front row seat for demonstrations by top chefs, cooking classes and a variety of tasting events. This year’s festival takes place from September 23rd to October 3rd and kicks off with a gala event held on the water in Mill Bay. Since Savour Cowichan began in 2014, its popularity has soared – to avoid disappointment, make sure you get your tickets early!

Raise your glass to celebrate the best of the Cowichan Valley at this year’s Savour Cowichan Festival.

During the ten day festival span, two lavish marquee events will be held on a floating barge in Mill Bay; while the Cowichan Valley artisan food and beverage producers host a myriad of other community based epicurean events.
