Grill Fest is Back – Bigger and Better for 2025!

After a great first year in 2024, Grill Fest is back, and it’s going to be even better! Brilliant compère Andrew Dickens will be there to detail the many ways our ovens, grills and firepits can boost your cooking, our suppliers will be there with loads of expert tips and cook-alongs, and there’s even a few fun activities to keep the kids entertained.

Not sure which BBQ or accessories are right for you? Always thought about or wondered about cooking on a firebowl? Or maybe you just fancy sampling seriously good food, drinks and live music? Our backyard will be transformed for the day, with top brands showing off their gear, and mouthwatering BBQ samples, with local food, beers, spirits and coffee to purchase.

With great food, music, and event exclusive offers, it’s the perfect summer day out. Tickets are limited, book now and don’t miss out!
