<p>Fancy yourself as something of a foodie? Then you better make tracks to Chester during the Easter weekend when this gargantuan foodie fest will be taking over the racecourse. And given it&#8217;s the 25th anniversary, things are set to be bigger than ever. A whole culinary cohort of guest chefs will be popping up for cooking demos, from Simon Rimmer to Miguel Barclay and Jay Tanner of Twenty Eight, Chester&#8217;s innovative British tapas space that made its mark this year on the <a href="https://cheshire.muddystilettos.co.uk/eat-out/squaremeal-top-100-restaurants-cheshire-manchester/">Top 100 Restaurants in the UK</a>. On the bill there&#8217;s also kids&#8217; and adults&#8217; cooking classes, plus a whole host of stalls to whet your appetite. Fancy making a weekend of it? Forget the drive home. You can pitch your tent or park up your camper van on the Roodee Racecourse, too. Tickets from £12 a day; £24 for all three days. Two adults camping for four nights and entry into the festival each day from £100. </p>

<p>Tatton Park is ablaze with action this Easter. The estate&#8217;s stableyard will be transformed over the long weekend with an Easter pop-up market. Expect stalls of piping hot food, steaming coffee and nibbles for grazing, plus a handful of homewares and local art. Tie this in with a ride on the whopping 50-metre high giant wheel that&#8217;ll also be popping up on the estate for the first time. All this plus easter egg hunts in the gardens, meetings with chicks and lambs at the farm, and a family trail in the mansion with a little help from the Easter bunny. Book online to save 10%. </p>

<p>How about a night at the circus in a cavernous big top tent and on-the-edge-of-your-seat performances? Gandey&#8217;s darts around the UK with its leftfield and jaw-dropping stunts that&#8217;ll leave you all starry-eyed and it&#8217;s landing at the Trafford Centre from 5 April until 21 April (Easter Monday). My tip? It&#8217;s absolutely worth forking out the extra few pounds to sit ringside, where you can gaze at the costumes, the choreography and the daredevil stunts just a few feet away. Tickets from £9.99.</p>
