LIVE 24-SEVEN COOKING STARS TO APPEAR AT SOLIHULL FESTIVAL


Award-winning chef Jean-Christophe Novelli, Britain’s Best Home Cook star Chris Bavin and Bake Off contestant Selasi will be among the celebrity guests cooking up a storm when the Solihull Food & Drink Festival returns for its eighth year this autumn.


After the success of last year’s festival featuring Hairy Biker Dave Myers, this year’s event will be the biggest yet, with 120 food and drink stalls, demonstrations and family entertainment between Friday 28 September and Sunday 30 September 2018. Arranged by Solihull BID, the town centre Business Improvement District, with renowned UK top food event organisers RR Events, the Festival aims to showcase the outstanding drink and dining options to new visitors to the borough.


The festival will see the return of The BIG Ale Trail, which offers a branded Ale Trail glass and chance to enjoy a swig at the town centre’s best bars and pubs whilst the Mell Square Demo Kitchen will be accompanied by over 120 continental food stalls and bars, children’s entertainment and live music later in the evening on Festival Friday and Saturday in the purple zone.


Voucher booklets will be distributed to offer dining discounts and promotions across the town centre long after Festival weekend has finished. And new for this year, a Food Festival purple zone will be created on the High Street featuring live music and evening entertainment.


Leading the celebrity line-up at Solihull Food & Drink Festival is Jean-Christophe Novelli, a five-time AA Rosette recipient and Michelin award-winning chef dubbed ‘the nation’s favourite French chef’. He will open the Festival at a Gala Dinner sponsored by the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Solihull.


Jean-Christophe arrived in the UK in 1983 and he ran Keith Floyd’s pub The Maltsters while Keith was filming his famous TV shows. In 1996, Jean-Christophe opened four restaurants in London, setting the foundations for a mini dining empire. Jean-Christophe will be in the Demo Kitchen in Mell Square on Saturday 29 September.


Joining him for Solihull Food & Drink Festival will be co-presenter of BBC1 series ‘Eat Well For Less’ Chris Bavin, Great British Bake Off’s much-loved Selasi Gbormittah, Tuscany- born restaurant owner Felice Tocchini and BBC Food and Drink competition winner Manju Malhi.
