The much-loved Colmore Food Festival is making a return to Birmingham for its 10^th anniversary in July 2023.

Next year, the free, must-visit festival will return in a new location in the Grounds of St Philips Cathedral and will provide guests with a tasty and affordable spread of mouth-watering mini dishes from the traders’ latest menus.

Whether you’re a diehard foodie or just fancy sampling the best of the District’s food and drink scene, the festival will be host to many food and drink stalls, with a range of options available to tingle everyone’s tastebuds!

The award-winning event showcases the best food and drink offerings from across the Colmore Business District and attracts over 30,000 visitors each year.

Visitors will be spoilt for choice with the stalls made up of local restaurants, coffee shops, bars and hotels offering a selection of meat, vegetarian and vegan options. Organisers are also placing price caps on food and drinks, creating an affordable, but unforgettable experience.

Colmore BID will now be reaching out to local ‘gourmet gurus’ operating in the District to showcase tasters of their decadent dining at the festival stalls.
