Food Festival set to tantalise taste buds once again

Grab some of the best grub the region has to offer at the city’s annual food festival later this month.  Sheffield Food Festival returns for a sixth year over the bank holiday weekend from Saturday 28 May-Monday 30 May and promises to be bigger and better than ever.

The Hallam-organised event will see the heart of the city transformed with visitors being able to eat, drink and shop at the artisan food stalls in and around the Peace Gardens, Winter Gardens and Millennium Square.  The festival will include family-friendly activities such as Whirlow Hall Farm Trust’s pop-up farmyard in Millennium Square and gingerbread person decorating in the Winter Garden.

BBC Radio Sheffield will once again return to stage their version of Ready, Steady, Cook and in the festival demo kitchen there will be masterclasses with some of the region’s best chefs featuring gluten free baking with Great British Bake Off’s Howard Middleton and Approved Foods, a key sponsor of the event, will be showcasing food that’s past its best before date that’s still #PerfectlyGood.

The Moor will also be running Taste Moor, a series of activities and events as part of the festival on Saturday 28 May. This will include dance sessions, craft activities and food demonstrations.
