‘World’s best BBQ’ coming to Scotland for first time ever

A FOOD festival dubbed the ‘world’s best BBQ is coming to Scotland for the first time.

London-based Meatopia is famed for its “live-fire chefs” who cook over charcoal.

And now the festival is coming to Glasgow‘s SWG3 next year from 6-8 June.

The festival will serve up food including steaks, fish and chicken as well as a selection of drinks.

An online post reads: “After 12 years on The Dock in London, we’re expanding our horizons and heading to a city that we’ve always held in our heart.

“Scotland is famous for rich produce, from land and sea, and after searching the British Isles, the Scottish people struck a nerve and we were sold.

“We’ve had the pleasure of hosting some incredible Scottish talent at our London festival throughout the years, now the time has come for us to head North to launch the inaugural Scottish Meatopia.

“Expect the same passion for live fire cooking, global talent, unrivalled vibes and memorable nights.

“Scotland we can’t wait to see what you can bring to the Meatopia party.”

Early bird tickets, priced at £10, are on sale now.

Fans couldn’t get enough and rushed online to comment on the announcement.

One said: “This is amazing news.”

Another added: “Let’s go.”

A third wrote: “Can’t wait.”

One commented: “Mega news.”
