The world's largest chicken wing festival is coming to The Trafford Centre for the first time

Get ready for some clucking good fun as the world’s largest chicken wing festival is set to be held at Manchester’s Trafford Centre for the first time.

Manchester Wing Fest, which has been previously held at First Street South, will showcase a range of restaurants, street food traders and pop-ups from across the UK, who will display their culinary talents and compete against each other. The competition is split into two categories: the best buffalo wing; the battle for who can execute the perfect classic spicy sauce, and the best wild wing; where the traders can let their creativity run wild with flavours and toppings.

Festival goers can enjoy local favourites such as Kong’s Chicken Shop, Wing Dash and Yard and Coop, as well as discovering new wings from all around the UK, including the award-winning Mexican Seoul. The competition will be fierce as all wing slingers will be competing to win votes and guarantee their spot in the Hall of Flame. A huge 6,000 chicken wing fans will have the opportunity to cast their votes across each of the two categories.
