The Ormesby Hall Food and Drink Festival 2025: A Feast by The Manor

Middlesbrough, listen up!
Brand New for 2025 is The Ormesby Hall Food & Drink Festival, taking place on September 6th–7th!
We’re bringing the celebration to Ormesby Hall, a historic National Trust Mansion surrounded by an oasis of natural scenery and stunning views.
So, take a moment to picture this: A selection of delicious bites in hand, a refreshing drink beside you, lounging back on a comfy deckchair next to The Live Music Stage, as the region’s up-and-coming talent echoes throughout the fields of Ormesby Hall. The best bit? That’s only part of it!
Whether you’re looking to learn culinary secrets from Yorkshire’s top chefs in The Live Cookery Theatre, enjoy whimsical family entertainment on the Live Entertainers Stage, or explore the grounds of Ormesby Hall, there’s a little something for everyone.
Get your friends and families on board and join us for a weekend brimming with exciting live music, delectable food, bustling marketplaces, and an abundance of activities for all ages.
