The Ballymaloe Festival of Food celebrates Irish food, seasonal cooking and the people behind it. Set in East Cork, on the grounds of Ballymaloe House Hotel, part of Ireland's Ancient East, the festival brings together chefs, producers and cooks to explore the journey of great food from farm to fork in a relaxed and welcoming setting.
Three days of immersive food experiences designed for curious cooks and passionate eaters. Expect inspiring cookery demonstrations, tastings, workshops, masterclasses and pop-up dining experiences that celebrate flavour, creativity and skill.
The prestigious Ballymaloe 12 WeekCertificate Course is run three times a year, with courses beginning in January,April or May, and September.
The course is aimed at anyone with a passionate interest in food. Many of our students use the course as a springboard to become a professional chef; others use it to equip themselves with a marketable skill.
Others still take the course simply to maximize the pleasure they get from cooking at home.
Students develop a deep and detailed understanding of food and how it is produced. The emphasis is on recognising the best ingredients and knowing how to showcase them.
