The festival programme

Each year the festival published a programme covering the Main Event and the fringe: who was taking part, where, and when. It appeared as a printed brochure distributed through participating venues and as a document on the festival's website.

Those documents are the main surviving record of what the festival actually did, which is why several of them still attract citations years after the last edition.

The programme was assembled by volunteers from submissions by the businesses taking part, which is why its coverage reflects who chose to join and not an editorial selection of the city's food scene.

A record of how the programme itself was assembled and published each year.
