The first ever Ubud Food Festival is being held this year, putting the theory that food is the window into a culture into practice. From June 5th to 7th 2015, this brand new event will celebrate the richness and diversity of Indonesian culture and descend upon Bali festivities. Uniting some of Indonesia’s most celebrated chefs, international restaurateurs helping to shape the archipelago’s culinary landscape and industry heavy-weights to experience Indonesia’s extraordinary cuisine, Ubud Food Festival will serve up a program rich in food mythology, authenticity and of course, taste. Embarking on a three-day adventure with Indonesian food as the star, the program will span Cooking Demonstrations, Workshops and Masterclasses, Special Events, Food Forums, Markets, Food Tours, and much more. Bringing together lovers of food, travel and culture from across Indonesia, Southeast Asia and the globe, Ubud Food Festival will create a sustainable, world-class culinary event that showcases Indonesia’s diverse cuisine, innovative chefs and extraordinary local produce. Ubud Food Festival is a major annual project of the Yayasan Mudra Swari Saraswati, with a vision of enriching the lives of Indonesians through community-building and cultural programs. It is the sibling event of Ubud Writers and Readers Festival and Bali Emerging Writers Festival.
