MEATOPIA 2020

AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Dear Meatopians,

It is with very heavy hearts that we must announce that Meatopia OnFire 2020 will be postponed until 2021. Even though September is still a few months away, for the safety of everyone involved, we feel this is the right decision. We hope you understand and agree. Just a few months ago, planning was in full swing and the idea of postponing the event was unthinkable… but nobody could have predicted the position in which we find ourselves today. Meatopia OnFire 2021 will take place from 3rd – 5th September 2021. Planning is underway and we look forward to making up for lost time. We can’t wait to have you all there with us for a celebration of food, fire, drink and music. The good news is that those of you who have tickets for 2020 and wish to attend the festival in 2021 will be able to automatically roll-over your ticket. If you can do this, it would be a great help towards supporting the festival’s future, and as a thank-you, all 2020 ticket holders will get their first dish on us*. If you don’t wish to roll your ticket over to 2021, please contact our ticketing partner See Tickets for a refund** — but do be patient with them, as they’re dealing with a lot of changes at the moment. Meatopia is founded on principles of great hospitality, and although our industry has been devastated across the globe there are many hospitality businesses doing amazing things right now to keep themselves, the key workers, and their customers going during the pandemic. Please support your local independent businesses as much as possible so that they have a chance of surviving this strange and

uncertain time.

Finally, we’d like to thank all of you incredible people who come to Tobacco Dock to party with us each year. The festival is a team effort and everyone involved is motivated by those who make it so special: all of you. We’re determined that your summer doesn’t pass by without you getting to experience some of what #Meatopia2020 was serving up, so fire up the grill or stoke up the smoker and stay tuned for some meaty content coming your way in the next few weeks. Until we meet again… keep the spirit of Meatopia alive in your hearts and bellies. Most of all, please stay safe, and please stay

home.

See you at #Meatopia2021. *Seetickets will be in touch with a voucher for your complimentary dish before the event. **Refunds can be requested up until the 8th of September 2020. MEATOPIA ONFIRE LONDON 2020 Now in its eighth year, Meatopia has become one of London’s best food festivals, and the stuff of legend for fans of fire-cooking. Founded in the US by the late, great Josh Ozersky and brought to the UK by a trio of passionate food enthusiasts, Meatopia is a weekend-long love affair with ethically-farmed and responsibly-sourced ingredients from the earth, land and sea, transformed into unique dishes by more than 60 of the world’s best chefs covering a cornucopia of styles and cuisines. At the heart of Meatopia is the living, breathing, age-old craft of cooking over fire. Our passion for conscious, responsible sourcing extends from ingredients into the fuel for cooking with. Every fire at Meatopia is set with the highest quality, sustainably-sourced wood and charcoal, produced to have a positive impact both on flavour and the

environment.

Since the dawn of time, the glow of the fire has drawn us to gather around and eat… so this year we’re celebrating that vital ingredient by putting it at the heart of the festival’s name: Meatopia OnFire, London.

Founded in the US by the late, great Josh Ozersky and brought to the UK by a trio of passionate food enthusiasts, Meatopia is a weekend-long love affair with food, drink, fire and music. Each year, we gather more than 60 of the world’s best live-fire chefs from all corners of the world to each cook an exclusive dish over sustainably-sourced wood and charcoal. We stand for conscious sourcing: only high quality, responsibly sourced ingredients (that means meat, fish and veg) make it onto the Meatopia menu, which is painstakingly put together over the course of the year with countless chef tasting sessions and refinements made to each and every item on the menu. “IN SCENES STRAIGHT OUT OF DICKENS, SMOKE BILLOWED FROM GRILLS IN THE CONVERTED VICTORIAN WAREHOUSES AS CHEFS DISHED UP BURGERS, PULLED PORK AND GRILLED CHICKEN FOR THE CROWDS.” _XANTHE CLAY, TELEGRAPH_ Meatopia takes place each year at the hallowed London location of Tobacco Dock, Shadwell. Built in the early 19th Century as a hub for precious cargo arriving into London from the New World via the river that runs alongside it, the timber frame and brick vaults of Tobacco Dock have witnessed everything from Victorian trade deals and tiger attacks to music festivals and, of course, some of the world’s best live-fire chefs arriving to cook at Meatopia. Today it has a reputation as one of the ultimate event venues in London. WHEN IS MEATOPIA 2020? Friday 4th September

The finest, most sustainably sourced wood and charcoal is the star of the show at Meatopia, so gather around the fire and let your inner cave-person be mesmerised by it. From simple grills to imposing smokers and roaring fire-pits, every method of fire cooking imaginable is on show at Meatopia, and at the helm of the flames are some of the world’s most skilled chefs.
