Key Restaurant Marketing Dates & Food Holidays for 2025–2026 (UK Edition)
If you're running a restaurant, you already know the pressure of staying relevant while keeping your diary full. One moment it's Mother's Day rush, and the next you're scrambling to figure out what to post for a quiet Tuesday.
Hi, I’m Lolly from Lolly Creative Studio, and after working behind the scenes with restaurant teams for years, I saw a pattern: Most businesses don’t need more content ideas—they need the right ones.
That’s exactly why I created the Restaurant Marketing Agenda 2025/2026 — a digital planning tool made specifically for UK-based hospitality teams who want to market smarter, not louder.
Forget Random Hashtag Days
Let’s be honest: not every "National Biscuit Day" or "Hug Your Pet Day" is going to move the needle.
Sure, they fill space on a content calendar, but do they bring people into your restaurant? Not really.
Your marketing shouldn’t feel like a social media to-do list. It should feel like a natural extension of your brand.
What Smart Restaurants Focus On
This agenda includes the real game-changing moments — dates and seasonal shifts that matter in this industry:
Major UK holidays (like Mother’s Day, Easter, and Bank Holidays)
Key industry moments (like Dry January, Veganuary, and summer staycation season)
Cultural events (from Wimbledon to Bonfire Night)
Marketing opportunities that help boost bookings on those quieter Mondays to Thursdays
It’s not about having offers all the time — that can cheapen your brand. This is about intentional marketing that keeps your space desirable, not discounted.
A Preview of What’s Inside
Here are just a few highlights from the agenda:
March 2026: - Mother's Day - International Women's Day - First signs of spring: the perfect excuse for a new menu or terrace launch
June 2025: - Father’s Day - Glastonbury Festival - Summer solstice - Peak season for weddings and outdoor dining
December 2025: - Christmas menu season - Festive team nights out - New Year's Eve bookings
And each month is mapped out in a visual calendar view with space for your own notes, custom events, and strategic reminders.
Ready to Take Control of Your Planning?
The Restaurant Marketing Agenda 2025/2026 is more than a calendar — it’s your content brain on autopilot.
No more second-guessing your strategy. No more last-minute ideas. Just clear, industry-relevant planning that helps you:
Show up online with purpose
Plan ahead like a pro
Book out your weeks with less effort
Grab Your Copy
Ready to skip the chaos and market like you mean it?
It’s the exact tool I wish every restaurant team had—because when your marketing is planned, your business can focus on what it does best: delivering an incredible guest experience.
Let’s make this your most profitable year yet.
