A Chilli Fest is set to return at the end of this month for a weekend of family fun.
Waddesdon Manor's annual celebration promises a packed weekend from Friday, August 30, to Sunday, September 1.
Attendees to the event on the Oxfordshire border can explore the manor gardens and try out various products from exhibitors.
The Chilli Fest weekend includes a schedule filled with live music, entertainment for families and activities for children.
MC and DJ Nathan Swift will be at the event across the three days with tunes by the likes of roaming party band The Stray Horns, brass funk band Tuba Libres and mariachi act Beatto Burrito.
Singer/songwriters Andy Robbins and Lewis Branch will also make appearances.
Dragon’s Den star Levi Roots, a household name for his Reggae Reggae Sauce, will perform a Saturday evening DJ set.
Young visitors can look forward to a story time session with Bluey from CBeebies, scheduled on Friday.
There will also be a chilli eating competition, organised by the Clifton Chilli Club, on Saturday and Sunday.
The food market will showcase a variety of treats including drinks, biscuits, cakes, chutneys, and more.
Festival-goers can take part in judging sauces, oils and pickles, with winners being announced on Sunday.
Spaces are limited for the chilli eating competition, so participants are encouraged to arrive early.
