We’re delighted to have you join us at this year’s Cheese & Chilli Festival. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be welcomed with an array of tantalising tastes and flavours.
This is a great opportunity to get together with family and friends, as we have plenty of free activities lined up for everyone. Plus, don’t forget to take advantage of the vouchers in this programme – they come with some amazing discounts.

If you are feeling really brave, why not enter our chilli eating competition or our Verses Chilli Challenge! – these are always a highlight of the event. You can do this via our Information Point.
Please visit Chilli Olly and Chilli Dave in our Cooking Theatre who will be entertaining you throughout the day with a jam packed programme (see Entertainment Schedule).
