Northernhay Gardens and Exeter Castle Courtyard will again play host to the South West’s largest food and drink festival from 13 - 15 April 2012. This critically acclaimed event highlights the depth, high quality and variety of local produce in the south west region. Meet the growers and the sellers and support the local economy.
The three-day festival, now in its ninth year, allows visitors to indulge in some of the finest produce from over a hundred regional exhibitors in two huge food pavilions and in high quality food outlets throughout the festival site.
Michael Caines heads a cast of the South West’s top chefs demonstrating their skills in the Festival cookery theatre as well as top tips and tricks from a whole host of Masterchef faces including James Nathan, Mat Follas and Jackie Kearney.
Children can have fun in the new Little Cookies area while adults can learn new skills in the expert master classes and enjoy the tastes and atmosphere of the South West’s famous food and drink Festival in the beautiful surroundings of Exeter’s castle.
Look out for the new Fresh at the Festival exhibitors, and our new fine dining Gourmet on the Go!
