It's about the horses of course. But the food and drink is central to the culture of Spain and Portugal!

There will be plenty of Paella and a tapestry of Tapas, Churros, those heavenly Pastel De Nata, and fine wines, port and sherry! English classics also available to ensure every palette is catered for. After the Espectáculos - the festoons are dazzling over La Plaza, the planchas are fired up - stay and have a bite to eat and soak up the electric atmosphere.

Confirmed food and drink traders serving all day every day are Shaws Iberian, La Levantina, The Portuguese Restaurant, Hispanic by Mavi, El Quixote Churros, The Churros Company, La Flamenco, La Lola and GandTea. Mark Cocker catering will also serve quality burgers, chips, pizzas and ice creams.

New for 2024 - cookery masterclasses and demonstrations will take place every day - a full timetable available soon.
