Held in a pop-up tipi village in Bristol's Queen Square between May 1-18, the fine dining lunches and dinners feature appearances from a number of Bristol and Bath chefs, alongside several top chefs from Devon and Cornwall.
Two Michelin-starred Cornish chef Nathan Outlaw will make an appearance with TV chef Valentine Warner for a special 'Hook It, Cook It' event on May 2.
