Burgers, beer and the Beatles. That’s just one combination the eclectic and exciting Meats & Beats festival can provide
RICHARD SEVRANCKX (pictured above) is a self-confessed food fanatic. He also loves his music so he decided to bring them both together, coming up with the Edinburgh-based Meats & Beats Festival.
This is a weekend combining the best of both worlds where food-lovers can mingle to the sound of their favourite classics hits from the past 50 years.
“Edinburgh has an amazing larder of quality produce, so I wanted to create an event that would showcase this in a fun and different way,” he says. “I also wanted all my favourite music at the event to create a party atmosphere and get people dancing.
“Meat and music go hand in hand. A nice meal with no atmosphere is like a football game with no goals. Each session lasts a minimum of four hours, so it gives people the opportunity to enjoy both the meat and the music with a feast of delicious street food, while getting into their groove on to on the dance floor with their favourite hits.
