Big Feastival adds Hercules & Love Affair, and Tom Middleton

Hercules And Love Affair, and Tom Middleton have been added to the line-up as The Big Festival announces their One Big Menu.

The new three day family friendly event takes place from Friday 1st to Sunday 3rd July at London's Clapham Common combining food from some of the country's top chefs with a top drawer selection of live music acts, and a ticket price that includes food. Created as an urban village fete with a music festival vibe, the event offers a day out for the entire family with food included in the ticket price and all kids can go free.

The Big Feastival has also unveiled it's 'One Big Menu' - a festival menu developed by Jamie Oliver and chefs from some of the UK's top restaurants. Festival-goers will be able to indulge in the ultimate dining experience, sampling special dishes by visiting the top notch pop-up restaurants all in a festival field and best of all, it's all for charity with event profits going to the Prince's Trust and the Jamie Oliver Foundation.

Jamie Oliver Commented: "The One Big Menu represents some of the finest food that London's restaurants have to offer. If you're a real foodie or even if you've got just a passing interest in great food, I reckon there's nowhere else this summer where you'd find a greater variety of better value, high quality food in one place and there's no other way you could realistically eat a fantastic starter at Trinity, a delicious main course at Locanda Locatelli and finish off with a brilliant Vinoteca dessert - and hear good music. The fact that the profits go to charity just adds to the uniqueness of The Big Feastival."

Unveiled by the Chefs during a Twitter Party, One Big Menu's dishes includes dishes from newly announced restaurant Cinnamon Kitchen who will be preparing modern Indian delights serving a mango mousse with mango mint salad, and Albannach will be providing festival goers with their unique twist on Scottish fare with mini haggis with neeps and tatties.

Encouraging festival goers to try different courses across a number of gourmet outlets at The Big Feastival, the experience is bringing three-course gourmet food directly to the consumer. With a standard ticket package that includes 3 or 5 dishes, it's a unique proposition in the festival calendar that makes great food accessible and affordable to all.
