Events & Festivals

One of Yorkshire’s premier local food festivals will occur in the town of Malton on May 25 and 26, 2019. Celebrating its eleventh anniversary the Malton Food Festival 2019 (or Malton Food Lovers Festival to give its full title) will attract tens of thousands of foodies from across the county and elsewhere in the UK.

This year’s festival will feature four of the county’s Michelin star chefs – Tommy Banks, owner of the Black Swan in Oldstead, Andrew Pern, of The Star Inn at Harome, James Mackenzie, of the Pipe and Glass Inn, and Michael O’Hare, owner of Man Behind The Curtain in Leeds.

Music will be provided by Fire Lady Luck, Megan Dotchin, Beth McCarthy and Abel Raise the Cain and the hopefully not prophetic Bad Brew, in what is described as Yorkshire’s Foodie Glastonbury – although I doubt there are many champagne and oyster bars in the Somerset mud.

Where is the Malton Food Festival

Held next to St Michael’s Church, Malton, this year will see a new indoor market in the Milton Rooms, a street food and picnic area, as well as fine ales in Taverner’s Yard.
