‘My Tasty Naija’ Food Festival UK Returns Bigger With London & Manchester Gigs

The second edition of the My Tasty Naija Food Festival is coming to two United Kingdom cities –London and Manchester– this summer following the success of its inaugural London event in 2025.

‘My Tasty Naija’ is an annual Food Festival curated to celebrate Nigerian Food, Culture and Community across the UK.

For this year’s edition, the festival dates and venues are as follow:

London Edition: Saturday, July 5, 2026, the venue is Eutopia Warehouse, 42 River Road, Barking, London, IG11 0DW.

Manchester Edition:  Saturday, July 11, 2026, the venue is Nigerian House Manchester, 23 Platt Lane, Manchester, M14 5NE.

The Convener, Abass Tijani, a lifestyle entrepreneur fondly called DJ Abass, said the vision for ‘My Tasty Naija’ has always been to celebrate Nigerian food and culture across the UK.

“Our YouTube show features Nigerian restaurants from London and across the UK. The goal is to take the festival experience to different cities each year and eventually to Nigeria and other parts of the world,” DJ Abass stated.

“With demand continuing to grow, this year’s festival will welcome up to 3,000 attendees in London and 1,500 attendees in Manchester.

“Visitors can look forward to great food, live entertainment, exhibitors, cultural showcases, networking opportunities, and the return of the popular My Tasty Naija Junior Chef Competition and Food Competition,” he added.

This year’s edition is sponsored by Nigerian Eats UK and GeeftMe –a digital fundraising platform that makes giving to verified causes in Nigeria simple, secure, and impactful.
