Foodies Festival, the UK’s largest celebration of food & drink returns to Tatton Park in Cheshire on the 18th, 19th and 20h July for its fourth consecutive year. Each year the ever-growing festival sees tens-of-thousands of visitors flock from the surrounding areas to feast on a vast array of culinary activities, discover new produce and enjoy a day of fun and entertainment. Just Music and Just Families was proud to have been involved with the festival last year and our readers voted in a huge success.
This year Foodies Festival shall be operating a Free Shuttle Bus from Knutsford Train Station, making a visit to the festival easier for those using public transport. With Manchester and Liverpool less than 30 minutes away the festival looks forward to welcoming many new visitors this summer.
Exhibition Director Sue Hitchen told us: “We’re delighted that Glynn Purnell, esteemed judge of Great British Menu will be joining us in the Chefs Theatre. Returning to my home town Knutsford is always very exciting for myself and Foodies Festival and with so many new features this year there’s sure to be something for everyone.”
Top Chefs
This year welcomes an extensive array of top chefs, including Glynn Purnell, head chef at Purnells and judge of BBC’s Great British Menu, MasterChef winner Mat Follas, former Coronation Street star and cheese maker Sean Wilson and returning to ‘The Street’ actor Charlie Lawson of Prestbury Farm Shop.
Coronation star Sean Wilson said “I am thrilled to be involved in the Foodies Festival at the beautiful Tatton Park this Summer. Being a fiercely proud Northerner it is always a pleasure to be asked to perform at a local event. I will be cooking some lovely Northern grub for all you foodie fans out there including our traditional Cheese and Onion Pie made with my very own award winning Lancashire Cheese.”
Glynn Purnell was very excited when we spoke “I am thrilled to be invited to such a fantastic food festival over the summer months. I just hope visitors can understand my accent as I will be cooking for people outside of Birmingham! I am looking forward to ‘Cracking some Yolks’ and spreading the word about my first book to the lovely people of Cheshire.”
