THE ultimate day out for food-lovers returns to Harrogate next month. The BBC Good Food Show Spring, sponsored by Lexus, will return to the town’s International Centre from April 10 to 12.

Having launched the new event last year, the show was a huge success with more than 15,000 visitors.

This year promises to be even bigger and better, with the 900-seat supertheatre in the Royal Hall playing host to the nation’s favourite chefs and celebrities, including Mary Berry, Paul Hollywood, the Hairy Bikers, James Martin and John Torode.

Visitors will also be able to try local produce and samples and see exhibitors from leading brands, such as Mercers of Yorkshire, treats from A Taste of America and tea paraphernalia from Alison Appleton.

You can also immerse yourself in the ultimate experience for food lovers by treating yourself to an indulgent VIP package. Choose from the quintessential Yorkshire experience, which includes a luxury afternoon tea at nearby Bettys Tea Rooms or or the standard VIP ticket and enjoy front row seats; either way you will be spoilt by our pampering. Advance ticket prices start from £16.50 and VIP tickets from £65.
