This October Bank Holiday Monday, we’re asking you to ‘bring a brack’ to Savour Kilkenny!
We’re on the hunt for the best of brack bakers locally, and we know we’ve got some serious home bakers across Kilkenny and Carlow! Places are limited, but we’d love you to take part. If you’re baking a brack for Halloween, now’s the time to show it off as we host Bring A Brack on Savour Kilkenny’s Taste stage, Monday 27 October.
Registration is easy – you can either text the word BRACK to 083 3069696 with your name and where you are, and we’ll get back to you with details, or fill in the form below.
We’ll have a cash prize for top place, as judged on the morning, while we celebrate an Irish tradition and kick off a busy programme of events for the final day of the Savour Kilkenny Food Festival. Get the tea on, the fruit soaked, and we’ll see you on Monday to see who’s got Kilkenny and Carlow’s best brack!
