The story

Kingston Curry Festival in Kingston

Kingston Curry Festival is a family food event held at venues including Hope Gardens and Devon House, built around curry dishes from curry goat to curried lobster, paired with live music, comedy, a craft market and an artisan village, organized by Project2Project Consultants under chief organiser Leighton Davis.

Kingston Curry Festival organizers list curried lobster, crab and even mango alongside standard curry goat and chicken on the festival's food program, pushing beyond the expected staples into more adventurous territory.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The festival pushes past standard curry goat and chicken into adventurous dishes like curried lobster, crab and mango, and structures the day around three stated pillars, food, music and comedy, rather than food alone

02

The mystery stays covered

Its rotating venue between Hope Gardens and Devon House, two of Kingston's best-known heritage lawns, gives the festival a flexible identity tied to the city's garden-party tradition rather than a fixed permanent site or a purpose-built exhibition ground
