We also have a specially-crafted activity programme – perfect to keep everyone and involved all weekend!

NEW: The Sizzling Showdown Arena – hosted by George Akid

Step into the Sizzling Showdown Arena, home to a series of activities and challenges tailored to friends and families alike. All events in the arena are completely FREE to enter…

The Chilli Challenge – Things heat up in the afternoon! Think you can handle the spice? Step forward and put your taste buds to the test in our chilli challenge. Enjoy 5-6 rounds of increasingly-spicy chillis, or kick-back on the sidelines and watch the chaos unfold – come by, sign-up, and get involved!

Family Dog Show – Calling all four-legged friends! Sign up your pooch and see if they can charm the crowd with the waggiest tail, the cutest trick, or the best catch. All dogs are welcome, and participation is very much the point. Reckon they can do an obstacle course too? Only one way to find out! 

The Foodie Olympics (Reimagined) – It’s time to go head-to-head in a series of light-hearted, food-themed challenges inspired by classic sports day games. Expect laughs, friendly rivalry and a chance to earn some serious bragging rights as Food Festival Champion.
