Dénia to Host D*na Festival 2026, Free Culinary Celebration on the Mediterranean

The ninth edition of the D*na Festival will take place on the Marineta Cassiana promenade in Dénia, Spain, on Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 September 2026. The free, two‑day event brings together recognised chefs, emerging culinary talent, local producers, artisans and hospitality venues to showcase the gastronomy of the Marina Alta and the Valencian Community. Visitors can explore an 800‑metre outdoor dining space, watch live cooking demonstrations, attend tastings, workshops and other food‑related activities, all aimed at highlighting the region’s Mediterranean culinary heritage.

Organisers describe the festival as more than a traditional food fair, positioning it as a platform for local farmers, fishers, winemakers, cheese makers, bakers and other artisanal producers to connect directly with the public and promote the quality and sustainability of their products.
