FUN-FILLED EXTRAVAGANZA OF CARIBBEAN FOOD, DRINK, FASHION AND MUSIC

The countdown is on to the first ever Caribbean Food Week (22-29 August) Festival.

The feast of Caribbean food, drink, fashion and music at Windrush Square, Brixton, takes place on August 26th and 27th (11.00am until 7.00pm).

Visitors to the Caribbean Food Week Festival will enjoy a fun-filled mix of cookery demonstrations, Caribbean street food stalls and vendors, live music and an authentic Caribbean market.

Two of the UK’s best known Caribbean chefs, Hasan Defour and Brixton-based Solomon Smith, will each be conducting 5 live cookery demonstrations and joining visitors afterwards to share handy hints about how to make great-tasting Caribbean food at home.

And one lucky person will win a seven night holiday for two in St Lucia (including flights/transfers etc.) courtesy of a free prize draw by one of the festival exhibitors, SN Travel.

Visitors will also be able to enjoy delicious food provided by seven Caribbean cuisine specialists, discover the delights of holidaying in the Caribbean, unearth some of the Caribbean’s finest writers and those with an eye for Caribbean fashion won’t be disappointed either.

And to add even more Caribbean sunshine, authentic steel pan musicians will be on site to provide a true Caribbean soundtrack to the two-day festival.

“We’re looking forward to a fantastic event. As the UK’s No.1 name in Caribbean food and drink, we want as many people as possible to join us and enjoy the true taste of the Caribbean,” says event organiser Nyree Chambers, Head of Marketing at Grace Foods UK.

“The event has something for everyone. Admission is free, we’re giving away money-off, in-store coupons for Grace/Dunn’s River products and, quite simply, we’re inviting people to come along and have a great time!”
