Brick Lane Curry Festival back with a bang to spice up London's East End!

Brick Lane plays host to biggest celebration of exotic food and culture, with over 60,000 people expected at Launch Event - free to attend for General Public

 

 

Brick Lane Curry Festival sponsored by Cobra, returns even bigger, better and tastier than before in 2009, spicing up Europe's self-styled Curry Capital once again, as it pays homage to the nation's favourite dish - the curry! Launching on Sunday 27th September 2009, the free to attend two-week festival will comprise a hearty celebration of exotic food, culture and the full flavours of the East, running until Saturday 10th October 2009.

Brick Lane Curry Festival is renowned as one of UK's biggest and most exciting cross cultural street parties. The launch event on 27th September will take shape as a buzzing street festival of sumptuous cuisine and al fresco dining; eclectic music, dance and street art performances; stalls providing unique Bangladeshi snacks and sweets; and ushers in traditional Indian costumes, snake charmers and chanachur walas (traditional snack sellers) entertaining visitors.

For the days following the lively street gastronomic extravaganza until Saturday 10th October, restaurants along the entire length of Brick Lane will provide festive menus, special offers and live entertainment.

Ahead of the Launch event, Wednesday 23rd September will witness the Best Curry Competition, when the Restaurant of the Year: Brick Lane '09 will be selected by way of the biggest public curry cook-off Europe has ever seen! The winner will be selected by a panel of four judges, comprising a well-known celebrity, MP, high profile dignitary and a specially selected member of the public.
