Foodies Festival 2023, Various, UK
April 29 - September 10
Since Foodies Festival was started in Edinburgh in 2006, it has grown into what the organisers claim is the largest food and drink festival in the UK.
Dubbed Gastro-Glastonbury, Foodies Festival now has 12 festivals, from 29 April to 10 September, across England and Scotland featuring quality food and great live acts.
Each Foodie Festival celebrates the food of its region, with loocal artisan producers, street food traders, and drink and food producers taking part.
At the heart of each Foodie Festival is the theatre, where top chefs demonstrate their cooking skills. Individual sections include: Cake and Bake Theatre; Drinks Theatre; and Kids Cookery Theatre.
Musicians will perform on the Musicians Against Homelessness (MAH) stage with money donated to Crisis.
Other events include pop ups such as Balgone Pumpkin Patch and Enchanted Woodland.
