Fallons Restaurant in Kilcullen will again be one of the Taste of Kildare Festival 2024 participants, taking place in September at Naas Racecourse, writes Brian Byrne. In total there's a network of over a hundred food partners taking part in the festival.
Taste of Kildare is organised by the tourism board for the county, Into Kildare. It will comprise food stalls offering a very wide range of Irish and global cuisines, and famous chefs will give demonstrations from the festival's stage — a star-studded lineup includes Rachel Allen, Derry Clarke, Gary O’Hanlon, Ross Lewis, Martin Shanahan, Natalie Collins, Jordan Bailey, Holly White, Mindi Keane, Duro Vdovic, Melissa McCabe and Martin Lewis among others. Workshops led by leading industry experts will still feature.
Different zones at the event will include Tastes of the World, The Terrace, BBQ Experience, Harvest Lunch Experience, The Cocktail Bar and The VIP Garden Area and VIP Lounge. There is also a Food Truck Village, Music Stage and the Bord Na Móna Family and Kids Zone.
Running from 20-22 September, the final day is a dedicated family day and is sponsored by Bord Na Móna, with children under 12 admitted free and families are encouraged to pre-register on the Taste of Kildare and on Ticket Master in advance.
Tickets are now on sale at www.tasteofkildare.ie/tickets and are priced from €15 for general admission. A bundle ticket priced from €27.50 per person includes admission and two signature dishes from any of the participating restaurants for one session on any one day over the weekend.
