Turn Up the Heat
Foodies will be pleased to hear that our Chef’s Demonstration Kitchen is returning to showcase some favourite chefs from across the region who will share their top tips and tricks to help you shine in your own kitchen. Across the weekend, we’re excited to be joined by Eddie Saint from Jesmond Dene House, MasterChef: The Professionals’ Kyle Greenwood, Richard Simm from Bamburgh’s Potted Lobster, and Rhian Cradock from the acclaimed Feathers Inn. Plus, don’t miss wine tasting with the team at Hotel Du Vin and learn how to drink wine like a true Italian with The Italian Wine Shop.
Get Hands On
Take a seat within our interactive LIVE Lounge and take time out to learn a new skill including foraging, willow weaving, pottery throwing and beekeeping. Live music will keep you entertained throughout the day, including appearances from the ever popular Rock Choir – don’t miss them!
Sip Sip Hooray!
When you need to take a break from all that shopping and activity, head to the hugely popular Living North Spring Bar where you can relax, unwind and enjoy a North East-made tipple or two. Cheers!
