  • Date: 2 Jun 22 - 5 Jun 22

We are THRILLED to announce the return of Delicious Doncaster Food and Drink Festival 2nd - 5th June 2022.

We have been keeping these two lovelies on a very slow simmer since 2020 and thankfully we can now turn up the heat and share the fantastic news that celebrity chefs Rustie Lee and Jonny Marsh will be joining us for the Delicious Doncaster Food & Drink Festival 2022 The Platinum Edition!

Oh you thought that was all? We have more very exciting news for you... Because this is the Platinum Edition, of course, we had to be a little extra! We are pleased to announce that this year, in addition to the two fabulous chefs mentioned above, we have also managed to secure the one and only Ainsley Harriott which we are so excited about and we think you will be too! 

It is going to be a brilliant bank holiday weekend, checkout the schedule below to see what you can expect from the event.
