Background
As the Guardian put it so well – “Liverpool’s restaurants and street food scene is one of the most exciting in the UK. From the elegance of Art School and Barnacle, celebrating local produce and global influences that shaped the city, to Bold Street Coffee and Buyers Club on Hardman street, a little slice of hipster Brooklyn. Not forgetting the Baltic Market, the city’s eclectic pre-eminent food hub with its big bustling warehouse affair.”
New immersive, quality food and drink venues are popping up in some of the most unexpected places and capturing the attention of visitors, investors and media. And for many of the world’s billions of tourists, gastronomy has become a central point on the tourism experience, a catalyst for the growing trend of food motivated tourism. Liverpool City Region now has the unique opportunity to position itself as a leading UK foodie destination – a sleeping giant of social and economic potential.
Building on our relationship with the French Government and the Grand Conseil du Vin de Bordeaux, now is the right time for Liverpool to shine a spotlight on the Food and Drink Sector by investing in the development of a brand new festival celebrating the people and plates which make Liverpool one of the most exciting foodie destinations in the UK.
