Festival organiser seeks trade partners to promote its first staycation package

Brand Events has launched a new experience to Cornwall this summer.

The company is looking to work with the trade to sell the four-day package to Brits looking for last-minute breaks in the UK. The Gourmet Getaway is the first-ever foodie festival escape from Brand Events, which has many years' experience in creating festivals, including CarFest, Taste Food Festivals and Tom Kerridge's Pub in the Park food and music festivals.

The four-day festival break includes four nights' camping at Roscarrock Manor Farm overlooking Port Issac, entry to the two-day Travelling Feast food and music festival at the Cornwall Showground and two days of exclusive experiences at Roscarrock Manor Farm campsite. These experiences include intimate gigs from The Cuban Brothers and Judge Jules, talks with Michelin-starred celebrity chef Paul Ainsworth and friends and a Paradise Carriage Brunch Cruise from Padstow with food by Niall Keating.

There will be live performances at the two-day Travelling Feast festival from Kaiser Chiefs, Rudimental DJ, Gabrielle, The Milk, Norman Jay, Gentleman's Dub Club, and Fisherman's Friend alongside food and cooking demonstrations from John Hooker Paul Ainsworth, Niall Keating and Angela Hartnett.

Brand Events show director, Brenda Daly, said: "The Gourmet Getaway is the first time that we have created such an exclusive festival experience. There are only 400 places available so it will have a wonderful intimate feel to it, particularly when festival-goers will be able to enjoy chats around the campfire with Paul Ainsworth and intimate performances from music legends Judge Jules and The Cuban Brothers."

Ticket prices start from ?400 per adult and ?325 per child under 16 with under-fives free and includes camping, entry to the two-day festival at the Cornwall Showground and the VIP experiences at Roscarrock Manor Farm. Pre-erected tents that sleep two, four and six people cost ?240, ?440 and ?600 respectively. Campervan passes cost ?100 and ?160 with an electric hook-up.
