THE Eastnor Castle Chilli Festival is back with a bang this weekend.

After a two-year hiatus, things are hotting up at Eastnor Castle again this weekend as Eastnor ChilliFest returns on Sunday May 1 and Monday May 2.

The two-day event which has been running since 2012 is the biggest annual event in Eastnor Castle’s event calendar and draws in crowds of around 5000 visitors each day.

Like many other events, Eastnor ChilliFest was sadly cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to Covid-19 restrictions so this year’s return of the event is extra special and much anticipated.

As well as enjoying the glorious grounds at Eastnor visitors to the Chilli Fest can expect to have their taste buds tingled at every turn.

There are a wealth of chilll related food suppliers on show at Eastnor.

All things Chilli to try and buy and live music as well as entertainment, bars and hot food even a children’s cookery school for all young chilli eating fans.

There is also the famous chilli eating competition where the very bravest among us can pit their taste buds against one another.

Whether it is the red hot Naga or Scorpion chillis or you like a more fruity flavoursome there is something for you at the festival.
