Britain’s best food festivals 2021 not to be missed!

Halal food and drink, vegan options and lots more, check out our recommended food festivals not to miss this year.

Wingfest

Not all Wings will be halal so you will need to ask before trying. This annual festival does what it says on the tin – delivers great chicken wings. It is appearing at three different locations (London, Manchester and Bristol), and ticket-holders can expect 35 different wing specialists offering up their wares, as well as a wing-eating competition.

24 Jul-12 Sep, from £25, wingfest.co.uk

Blenheim Palace Food Festival

This lively festival, now in its seventh year, is set in the spectacular grounds of Blenheim Palace and features 160 stalls selling foodstuffs from award-winning cheeses to fudge, baked goods and international street food – plus a dedicated vegan and vegetarian section, as well as talks and demonstrations from chefs.

20-22 Aug, adults from £18.50, children from £9, blenheimpalace.com/whats-on/events/food-festival
