The Lagos Food Festival, which will hold today, Sunday December 12 2021 this year at the Muri-Okunola Park, Victoria Island, Lagos.

The Lagos State Commissioner for Agriculture, Ms. Abisola Olusanya, who made this disclosure in Lagos, explained that the Lagos Food Festival is an offshoot of the annual Seafood Festival, where the state celebrates its seafood varieties spiced up with other exciting activities.

According to Olusanya, “The forthcoming Lagos Food Festival is a follow-up on the success story achieved from the implementation of the five editions of the erstwhile Lagos Seafood Festival, which was held between the year 2012 to 2020.

“Although Lagos is a major player in the Fisheries Value Chain, cognisance is being taken off the other Agricultural Value Chains where the State has strong comparative and competitive advantage hence the re-branding of the Lagos Seafood Festival to the Lagos Food festival.”

Olusanya also noted that the festival will project the various food offerings from the diverse socio-cultural groups in the state to the local and international markets.
