Right Some Good Food Festival — event in Baddeck & Bras d'Or Lake, Cape Breton

Right Some Good Food Festival

Annually in September · Various pop-up venues

Pop-up dinners pairing world-class chefs with Cape Breton producers.

Multi-day culinary festival showcasing local seafood, lamb, cheese and produce in pop-up dinners across the island, plus seafood chowder cook-offs and chef demonstrations.

What to expect

Intimate ticketed dinners (30-80 seats), often in unexpected settings — a lighthouse, a barn, a working farm. Visiting chefs from Toronto, New York and beyond cook with island ingredients.

Highlights

The oyster-shucking demos. The chowder cook-off finale. Seasonal apples and pears at peak.

Plan ahead

Tickets via rightsomegood.ca — release early. Plan a roving itinerary; rental car essential.

Why go

The festival that put Cape Breton on Canadian foodies' radar, still unpretentious and producer-driven.
