“It will be a fantastic weekend celebrating some of the best food and drink on offer.”
A second stage has been added this year and will include demonstrations from three of the county’s top cookery schools – Jamie’s Ministry of Food, Malton Cookery School and Cooks, The Carlton School of Food.
Another highlight will be a chilli eating competition, which will be held at 2.30pm on June 5.
