Food festivals are a common occurrence in the UK and take
place in all sorts of places and at all sorts of times. Whatever your taste,
there's a food festival to match -no matter how specialized.
Meatopia
This three-day, London-based festival takes place at the end
of August and is a meat lover's paradise. In addition to a range of meat
products, from burgers to steaks, attendees can listen to live music, watch
butchery shows, and attend informal meat-based workshops.
Vegfest
If you prefer a festival that will help you meet your five a
day, then Vegfest fest is for you. This vegan-friendly event takes place
several times a year. Here you can enjoy a wide selection of freshly prepared
vegetables, learn cooking tips and hear talks on nutrition to help you make the
most of your plant-based search.
The Marmalade Festival
Held in Cumbria, this festival has been running for 13
years. It includes a competition to find the best homemade marmalade. There are
thousands of entries from over 30 different countries across the globe.
The Ginger (姜) and spice Festival
The Ginger and spice Festival, held in Market Drayton,
celebrates its town's historic connection to Robert Clive, who returned from
India with ginger. Because of this, they specialize in baking gingerbread, but
also sell a range of spices from mild to hot.
The National Honey show
It started in 1921 and is the largest event of its kind.
This three-day event attracts over 2000 participants to their traditional
competition and offers lectures and workshops on beekeeping and, of course,
that syrupy golden honey.
While people's tastes are different from each other, the UK
has something to offer most people. From large-scale festivities, to the
smaller gatherings, one thing is certain: people are passionate about their
food. And while some of the products on offer might be strange to someone, when
food is given that much attention, it's unlikely to leave a bad taste in anyone's
mouth.
