For the 9th year running, Blenheim Palace will hold their annual gastronomic Food Festival during the Bank Holiday weekend on Saturday 27th May until Monday 29th May 2023 in Oxfordshire. This magnificent, historical palace is a spectacular backdrop for a Q&A with chef royalty, Raymond Blanc OBE who will be headlining the festival this year.
One of the UK’s largest outdoor food festivals, Blenheim Palace Food Festival guarantees a fantastic day out for all the family with celebrity masterclasses, a tasting tent for extensive sampling, entertainment for the children and high quality local and national stallholders offering delicious delights.
One of the finest chefs in the world, Raymond Blanc OBE is chef patron at Michelin starred Le Manoir aux Quat’ Saisons, he comments: “I’m thrilled to be taking part in the Blenheim Palace Food Festival this year. It’s always such a delight coming together with a wealth of food and drink experts and meeting so many foodies, with a few familiar faces! I’m looking forward to my Q&A and to seeing what’s on offer at the festival with so many unique and interesting stallholders.”
Event partner Blacklion Vodka is guaranteed to get the party started by shaking up some mouth-watering cocktails with their award-winning luxury vodka made with a rare sheep's milk. It’s 100% sustainable, impossibly smooth & flavourful. Or joint event partner, Laithwaites for one of their wine tasting sessions.
