If you love the succulent crunch of fried chicken, you wont want to miss this food festival.

Street food organiser Kerb is bringing their fried chicken battle back to London, after pitting popular chicken sellers against each other in May last year.

On Friday 20 July and Saturday 21 July, eight vendors will once again endeavor to win over the taste buds of attendees, in order to be voted Londons fried chicken champion and crowned the 2018 Kerb Colonel.

Your ticket price includes a portion of fried chicken from every competing chicken vendor and gives you the opportunity to vote for your favourite once youve tried them all.

You can buy extra portion and extra sauces during the event if your fried chicken cravings have not been fully satiated.

Everyone who buys a ticket for this summers chicken extravaganza will receive a free bottle of Franks RedHot Sauce.

Live music and DJ sets will accompany all the chowing down, and KERB have also curated a chicken-friendly cocktail and seasonal soda menu.

Beers will also be available from London craft brewery favourites Fourpure Brewing Co and Five Points Brewing Company. If you fancy wine, Chapel Down wines will quench your post-chicken thirst.

Tickets are £30 and available here.
