The Alnwick Food Festival 2010 is set to be just as spectacular as the previous five.
Alnwick Beer Festival will again be held on food festival weekend and the two festival committees are working together to cook up a weekend of family fun. Don't miss the large selection of local ales in the Town Hall in an event which is very popular and well-attending.
Since the launch of the Alnwick Food Festival, the town has been named as the sixth best place for gastronomic activity in the country by a new guide to British food. The BMW 1 Series Good Food Ride said Alnwick’s restaurants, food festival and farmers’ markets have contributed to a thriving ‘gastrohub’. To be placed in the book’s top 20, each destination had to reach certain criteria which the panel of judges felt were necessary to be defined as a gastrohub. Each place had to hold a farmers’ market, have a traditional dish or destination ingredient, hold a food festival, have a food hero who is passionate about local sourcing and a Michelin-starred restaurant, the only category in which Alnwick failed.
Alnwick is set to be the culinary capital of Northumberland again when the sixth food festival hits the town on September 18/19, 2010. Organisers have packed this festival with more food fun and gastronomical games.
