Gino D'Acampo to host cooking demonstration at Yorkshire Dales festival Celebrity chef Gino D'Acampo will be hosting a cooking demonstration at next month's Yorkshire Dales Food and Drink Festival. The event is being held at Funkirk Farm in Skipton from 21st-23rd July. It will include a kids cookery school, a petting farm, mini tractors and tons of free entertainment for children. And among the celebrity guests will be This Morning chef and former King of the Jungle Gino. Also hosting demonstrations will be The Hairy Bikers and James Martin.

The event will include 300 workshops and masterclasses and 50+ celebrity and Michelin chef demos.

Yorkshire Dales Food & Drink Festival founder Rachael Higgins said:

“I’m a mum of three so I absolutely know how hard the children’s summer holidays can be. Trying to keep everyone entertained and happy is no small feat but my dream was to create an event that did exactly that.

“There is literally something for everyone at the festival and we’ve worked really hard to ensure it offers genuine value too which is why under 7’s get in for free and most of the activities are free to take part in.

"We want everybody to have fun and come back next year and with 70 per cent of this year’s ticket sales coming from repeat customers I’d say we’re on the right track.”

The festival will feature live music from various tribute bands, DJ sets from Gok Wan and Pat Sharp as well as the legendary Brutus Gold’s Love Train.

The family-owned festival is the largest of its kind in the UK.
