Pune, 29th October 2026: If you’re looking for millet snacks, spices or small homegrown food brands, Karvenagar is the place to be this weekend. The Food and Agri Expo 2026, also called Food Mahotsav, will be held on Saturday, October 31, and Sunday, November 1, at Golden Leaf Banquets on DP Road.

The organisers, Maitri Excellence, founded by Minal Rajkarne, say there will be more than 90 stalls. This year’s theme is “From Roots to Food”.

What you’ll find

Ready-to-eat and ready-to-cook foods, dehydrated foods and premixes, organic products, spices, millet flours and snacks, frozen foods and drinks. Expos like this are a good way to discover small producers and farmer groups from across Maharashtra who don’t have shops in the city, and with Diwali a week away, some stalls are likely to have festive packs too.

Entry fee and timings haven’t been announced. It’s worth checking with the organisers before you go.

For food businesses

Maitri Excellence has also proposed a buyer-seller meet on November 1 to connect small producers with retailers and distributors. Whether it happens depends on how many people sign up.

Getting there

PMPML buses from Deccan, Kothrud and Warje go to Karvenagar. If you’re on the Metro, get off at one of the Aqua Line stations on Karve Road and take an auto from there; it’s roughly ten minutes. Weekend parking on DP Road can be limited.
