2. A great way of meeting local producers, getting hints and tips straight from maker
3. Located in the heart of the historic city of Truro, Cornwall’s beating heart, filling Lemon Quay with an all-weather grand marquee
4. Free to visit over 3 jam-packed days of demos, tastings and shopping
5. The very best of Cornwall’s chefs on stage, demonstrating their culinary skills and providing new ideas, skills and inspiration for every food lover

7. Sizzling street food from pizza to paella to pasties
8. Easy access on one level, ideal for buggies and wheelchairs
9. Great transport links via the new Park & Ride schemes at Tregurra and Langarth Park. Alternatively just a 10 minute walk from Truro train station, catch a bus straight to the centre of the action, enjoy a relaxing ferry ride from Falmouth or St Mawes or take the bike

We can also announce that celebrated seafood, Michelin-starred chef Nathan Outlaw, local hero and now writer of four great cookbooks, will be officially opening the Festival on the Friday 22 September at 10am.
