Eat Cambridge 2013 — the first festival
Eat Cambridge ran for the first time in 2013. It was started by three residents of the city with an interest in the local independent food scene, and from the beginning it was organised and staffed by volunteers, not by a company or a council department.
The shape set in that first year held for the rest of the festival's life: a main event bringing producers together under one roof, and a fringe of smaller things spread across independent venues over about a fortnight in May.
The 2013 programme was published as a printed brochure and as a PDF on the festival's own website. Both are listed in this archive because the document itself attracted links and citations at the time.
The 2013 record: the first edition, three residents, no company and no council department behind it.
