Chester Food and Drink Festival Chester Food, Drink and Lifestyle Festival 3rd - 5th April, 2010

Chester Food and Drink Festival has received an exciting makeover and as of 2010, the festival will be called, Chester Food, Drink and Lifestyle Festival. The new festival still features all of the wonderful food and drink stalls but will now appeal to an even wider audience by introducing a lifestyle show and camper van event to its line up.

Chester Food, Drink and Lifestyle Festival includes three jam packed days of activities set within Chester Racecourse. Included in this year’s festival are the ever popular celebrity chef demonstrations. Chefs already confirmed for the festival are Simon Rimmer, Michael Caines, Andrew Nutter and Thomasina Miers.

This is already an outstanding line-up of World class TV chefs and shows the drawing power of Chester to attract such huge names to our event. More exciting names are to be confirmed in the coming months.

Chester Food, Drink and Lifestyle Festival will showcase over 120 food and drink stalls offering festival goers the chance to see, taste and buy the very best produce the region has to offer. From award winning sausages and delicious home grown vegetables to tasty food to taste and eat, as well as a champagne tent and a beer tasting marquee, making this the festival for the truly appreciative pallet.

New for 2010, Chester Food, Drink and Lifestyle Festival welcomes a Homes and Garden exhibition, which will make the festival the largest lifestyle event the county has ever seen. Over 50 stalls are expected to be at the exhibition including home interiors, art galleries and furniture stores.

Over 300 campervans are expected to join in the fun too, in what will be the only campervan get together in the UK during the spring. Campers can look forward to a beer festival, which will include music and a marquee of tasty local beer and ale.  Campervans are invited to park within the racecourse, surely making this the most exclusive campsite address in town.

And children need not feel left out, as there is a dedicated Children’s cookery marquee where children can get messy with food and learn through play. They can join in making pasta, cakes and bread all to take home for mum and dad, that’s if they haven’t eaten it already!
