Smoke & Fire<br />

For those people looking forward to the time when going<br />

out and eating well is allowed again, there’s something<br />

completely different coming to the north west this<br />

summer to tickle your taste buds.<br />

The Smoke and Fire Festival, a BBQ and outdoor cooking<br />

festival, was launched to great acclaim in 2017, attracting<br />

crowds of over 18,000. This year the Festival is going on<br />

the road, and one of the four UK venues is Victoria Park<br />

in Southport.<br />

Each festival will showcase top BBQ and outdoor cooking<br />

heroes, competitions, fabulous pop-up restaurants,<br />

two live music stages, award-winning street food, BBQ<br />

and outdoor cooking equipment demonstrations, kids<br />

entertainment, and a mini real ale and cider festival.<br />

The Smoke & Fire Festival North takes place at Victoria<br />

Park, Southport from 18th to 21st June. Tickets are<br />

available from www.smokeandfirefestival.com.<br />
