DAY TURNS INTO night at the festival
Feasting, music and fun in Ludlow Castle after dark

On Friday, 13th September, the Inner Bailey of Ludlow Castle will come alive with fire, flavour, and festivity - join us for a celebration of 30 years of Ludlow Food Festival!
As the sun sets, the historic castle walls will witness the sizzle and smoke of the first round of the British Live Fire Cooking Championships in association with Kadai and Love Logs. Watch chefs compete in a fiery battle, showcasing their skills over open flames.
As the competition heats up, the renowned Beefy Boys will be serving up their mouthwatering, award-winning burgers. Andy Stubbs will be serving pulled pork buns and Keith Cooks will be serving a delicious vegetarian curry!
Adding to the evening’s magic, Kadai’s fire pits will be blazing throughout the Inner Bailey, casting a warm glow and creating an unforgettable atmosphere. Whether you're a food lover, a fire enthusiast, or just looking for a unique way to spend your evening, this is an event you won't want to miss.
Talented musicians will create the soundtrack to your evening, while DJs keep the energy high, spinning tunes that will get everyone moving. The Shropshire Lad’s Rum Shack and Bar will be open, serving alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks throughout the evening.
