BITE INTO THE SUSSEX & BRIGHTON FOOD AND DRINK EXPERIENCE WITH US

BITE Sussex is brought to you by the original team behind the renowned Brighton & Hove Food and Drink Festival. After over a decade of celebrating Sussex food and drink, we’ve re-booted the concept to ensure it's relevance for the 2020s.

​

Each year we host two festival periods bringing together local hospitality business and quality food and drink producers from our region to showcase the best of Sussex to you through tours, tastings, one-off dinners and drinks promotions including Sussex Gin Week and the Brighton Cocktail Weekender. Our next festival period runs Wednesday 24 - bank holiday Monday 29 August – the events programme will be posted here in July.

We're also recognising the huge contribution that young people make to our industry through the annual BITE Sussex Rising Stars Awards and raising a glass of cheer with our Sussex Bartender of the Year competition. 

​

Behind-the-scenes, we also support our partner businesses with two annual trade tasting events to connect producers with buyers and work tirelessly across the year on PR opportunities and exciting regional and international collaborations. If you are a local food and drink business then GET INVOLVED and join the coalition of the Sussex food and drink willing.
