A little taster of what’s in store…

The world of Waitrose
Be the first to try our Christmas range, sip stellar wines in the No.1 Bar and record a question for chef Angela Hartnett (you might hear it answered on the Dish podcast). Snap a selfie in the Food mag photo booth, then learn about our regeneratively farmed Leckford Estate.

Brilliant brews
Beer and cider lovers rejoice! With five rooms of classic brews and craft creations to explore, you’ll get to sip your way around some of the UK’s best breweries. Don’t miss the JUBEL x Wildfarmed room, serving up ice-cold beer, regen sourdough and live DJs on the decks.

Award-winning cheeses
A festival favourite, the joyful Cheese Cellar, in partnership with Granarolo, is back with an incredible selection of varieties to taste. Watch fresh mozzarella being stretched and folded by a master cheesemaker, then see a whole wheel of Parmigiano Reggiano being cut.

Tastings with top chefs
Dishpatch from Waitrose brings dishes from some of the UK’s best-loved chefs directly to your table. Join Jack Stein (Friday), Sabrina Ghayour (Saturday, both sessions) and Atul Kochhar (Sunday) as they serve up their festive menus in the Dishpatch restaurant.

Expert masterclasses
Fancy brewing kombucha, shaking a cocktail, perfecting your gravy or joining a tutored wine or port tasting? Our half-hour masterclasses are a great chance to learn something new (and have fun along the way). Click here to see the full line-up – then book in advance.

Cocktails with MOTH
Our festival partner MOTH is bringing the party back this year with its bigger and better than ever MOTH bar. Think delicious cocktails, disco balls and feel-good vibes as you soak up the atmosphere. Hit the dance floor if the mood takes you!
