Set in the eco-conscious surroundings of Tewinbury Farm, UCFF blends field-to-fork discovery with cutting-edge culinary debate, making it more than just a festival - it's where chefs get seriously inspired. Attendees can expect a full-on day of:

• Live demos from Michelin-starred legends including Tom Aikens, Daniel Clifford, Josh Angus and more

• Foraging walks led by Ground Up Cookery's Colin Wheeler-James
• Provocative debates on AI, ethical business, and wellness through food
• Return of the Wild Food Stage with immersive prep and sustainability insights
• A vibrant Farmers Market showcasing standout producers and suppliers
• Tours of Tewin Greens' market garden with Lloyd Harrison

A spokesperson for UCFF commented: “Created by chefs, for chefs, UCFF is more than a festival - it’s a reset for the industry. It’s where chefs, buyers, growers, and innovators come together to share ideas, challenge norms and celebrate the craft. With a portion of ticket sales supporting Tom Aikens’ Kilimanjaro Challenge for Only A Pavement Away, every plate served helps someone take a step forward.

“Guests will also enjoy a day-long feast curated by head chef Alan Paton, Michael Eyre, Chris Brennan and Matt Wilby, using ingredients from the event’s exhibitors. And the night before, a pre-festival dinner hosted by Lee Maycock at Roots Kitchen will bring together chefs, sponsors and exhibitors for a seasonal celebration under the stars.”
