Who really does the best wings?

Europe’s biggest chicken wing show-down returns to London to provide the answer to that burning question - who really does the best wings?  On the 15th and 16th of August at First Street South, competitors from across the UK will work their culinary magic in a bid to be crowned the King or Queen of the Wing.

Wing Fest will see 20 contestants battle it out in two fiercely contested categories in a bid to persuade wing lovers of their merit:

Best Buffalo Wing

Described in the North American dictionary, from where this mighty morsel hales, as "Deep-fried wings coated in a spicy sauce." Of course to those in the know, this description simply doesn’t do this wonderful creation justice and the search for the best out there is fiercely contested across the world.

Best Wild Wing

This category is looking to explore and demonstrate the many exciting ways a chicken wing can be prepared and served in the broadest sense possible. In this category anything goes. Any flavour, any technique, any taste. Basically the rule is, there are no rules.

The culinary warriors battling it out in 2020 are a mixture of street food vendors, pop up legends, and restaurants from all over the UK.

All wings are £1 and will be sold in individual joints ( £1 = 1 drum, or £1 = 1 flat) to allow voters to try as many wings as possible from each of the contestants.  

For the greediest of wing eaters among you, the incredibly popular Frank’s RedHot Wing Eating Competition will again be taking place on both event days. 

The deadly GET HEATED Lava Wing Challenge, which is guaranteed to cause carnage, will also be held on both event days this year.

Sign up for both competitions will be on the day at the main stage. Keep an ear out for the announcements about when to head to the main stage. 

We'll have charismatic BBQ chefs ruling the roost on the Chicken Shed stage.  Here you can also expect tantalising cooking demonstrations, BBQ tips, fun shows and musicians later in the day!

Returning for 2020 will be fairground attractions, roaming musicians, and free axe throwing!

There will be live blues music, bourbon master classes and street entertainment through out both event days, as well as DJs playing summer party vibe tunes into the night.

Saturday 15th August: Mid day – 21:00.
