Fancy a trip to one of the many UK Chilli Festivals this year?
At TheChilliGuy.com we love everything to do with chillies. There are many UK Chilli Festivals happening all over the UK in 2016 where our passion for the super hot chillies is shared. I am hoping to attend some of the festivals and bring you an in-depth report/blog including lots of pictures and videos.

All of the UK Chilli Festivals are great family events with lots of things to do. There is usually lots of food to taste from mildly spiced food right up to super hot chilli dishes. There are always lots of chilli pickles, sauces, jams, pastes, snacks and don’t forget the chilli beer and chilli cider!
Are you organising a UK chilli festival that is not listed? Get in touch and I’ll add details as a priority. Use the contact us form at the end of this post and include details and a website URL if possible.

Hi, have you got any more details about the event in Glasgow on 3rd September as we would really like to come along
Hi,
Thanks for your contact form re the Scottish Braves Chilli Festival. When originally posted on TheChilliGuy blog, the 2016 dates and location had not been confirmed. On checking again today it seems that it is still the case. Previously the event was at Scone Palace in Perth but their website does not contain any listing for this year Im afraid. It does appear that the event may not be happening which is a shame. I can see it listed on a few sites but only with TBC information. I will keep an eye on it and will update you if I find it is happening. Kind regards, The Chilli Guy (Alan)
