Roots, Rants and Roars

Roots, Rants and Roars is a one-of-a-kind culinary festival celebrating Newfoundland & Labrador’s wild flavours, rugged coastline, and world-class chefs. Held the third weekend of September each year, in Elliston, it features multi-course feasts, a gourmet coastal hike, live music, and a vibrant mix of local and visiting talent. Rooted in sustainability and community, it's a weekend that brings together food lovers from near and far to taste, connect, & celebrate. Hyper-local, wildly delicious.
