Stalls & Entertainment
Fabulous food with a secret
A food festival with a twist. Not only is succulent food available in every direction it is also laced with the added attraction of a touch of chilli. Chilli has been rumoured to have many positive effects, from mimicking the aphrodisiac nature of oysters to curing the common cold. Why not come down and do a little personal research! Naturally all the other normal attractions will be here, live music, and a stonking big kids zone. A special appearance by the chilli comedy club completes the line up. Bring the whole family and stay for the day.
