Roots, Rants and Roars

Plan your fall visit around Roots, Rants & Roars, a coastal culinary festival that takes place on the third weekend of September in Elliston. Experience a battle for the best cod dish, a seaside hike with food & beverage stations, a long-table 8-course feast, guided foraging experiences, and live events featuring celebrated chefs, wild local flavours, and rugged Atlantic views. Rooted in community and sustainability, it’s an unforgettable weekend of food, music, Newfoundland culture.
