Spread the news! A festival focusing entirely on Christmas sandwiches is coming to London in November 2025.

For just one day, Londoners can tuck into festive takes on the humble sarnie, whipped up by 15 top chefs. Expect to see (and taste) plenty of turkey, stuffing and cranberry — but also more unusual twists on Christmas sandwiches.

This year's traders include ciabatta makers The Black Pig, woodfire chefs Rogue Sarnies, artisan bakery Imma The Bakery, and Dom's Subs, AKA Impeccable Sandwiches. Needless to say, your go-to supermarket festive sandwich will never hit quite the same spot again.

Taking place at Somerset House (note the change from last year's Peckham venue), the event also includes live DJs and festive games. Children are welcome.

Here's the rub: a standard adult ticket for the festival costs £11 with booking, which gets you entry only. Sandwich tokens cost an extra £7.50 each and can be bought separately on the day. If you only eat one sandwich, you'll have paid almost £20 for the pleasure. That's sub optimal. To get your dough's worth (some of these sandwiches usually retail at way north of a tenner), you'll need to have more than one. If you're feeling particularly peckish, there's a bundle ticket for £31, which includes entry and three sandwich tokens.

Sarnie Party: Christmas Special at Setlist at Somerset House, 29 November 2025. Standard tickets from £10 adult/£7.50 child +booking, available now.
