Delaware North has launched its Signature Chef Series, a new initiative designed to trial unique culinary concepts for guests and members at key UK stadia.
The global foodservice and hospitality provider said the series will focus on delivering memorable experiences throughout the events season.
The Delaware North Signature Chef Series began earlier this year through a partnership with multi-award-winning chef and pioneer of Chinese food, Andrew Wong.
Wong launched the first Michelin-starred chef-led concessions concept at Wembley Stadium, creating a bespoke dim sum menu inspired by dishes from his acclaimed restaurant, A. Wong.
The series will continue across the UK with guest appearances from chefs including Calum Franklin, known for his expertise in creating showstopping pies, Rockfish founder and seafood specialist Mitch Tonks, and Michelin-starred chef Tommy Banks.
Banks has been working with Delaware North for the past year to deliver premium dining experiences at the Stadium of Light.
The initiative will also champion Delaware North’s own team of chefs and long-standing suppliers.
Doug Tetley, Managing Director, Delaware North UK, said: “The landscape of stadium events has evolved so rapidly to the point where we no longer have a quiet period. With the summer months driving peak stadium attendance with concerts, sport, and the start of the football season, what better time to welcome a collection of renowned and talented chefs as part of our newly launched Signature Chef Series.
“At Delaware North, our focus is on creating the world’s best experiences by investing in memorable food moments, and we’re delighted to be highlighting the craft of some of the best chefs in the business as they lend their expertise to enhance the experience for every guest who walks through our doors.”
The Signature Chef Series reflects growing demand for elevated food and beverage experiences across stadia and major event venues, where hospitality is increasingly central to the overall guest experience.
