Meet your food heroes at the Big Eat Weekend

This four-day celebration of street food is one of the biggest events on the North East’s eating calendar. Each September, the region’s tastiest food trucks and most talented chefs descend on the city of NewcastleGateshead with one mission: to educate the masses in the art of eating, cooking and drinking.

The Food Heroes Market is full of stall holders ready and willing to supply you with tongue-tickling surprises from their stomping grounds and beyond, while well known and local chefs run food workshops to help you hone those kitchen skills. One thing’s for sure: you definitely won’t leave hungry.
