The Heaton Park Food and Drink festival is set to return for 2023. Last year’s event saw over 10,000 people attending, taking in the food stalls and demonstrations.
This year, organisers are promising an ‘expanded experience’, featuring interactive cheese, wine, whiskey and chocolate tasting sessions put together by local experts. There will also be cocktail making classes, with the other demos taking place in the festival’s own cookery theatre.
The ‘street food arena’ will feature everything from boa buns to tacos and desserts, with a focus on local producers, and will boast its own ‘ale house’, with other bars serving wines, spirits and cocktails. Meanwhile, entertainment over the weekend will include live music, a live entertainers stage, kids activities, and ‘roaming comedy’ acts.
