Simon Fogal, founder of Chow Down and Leeds Indie Food, said: “We loved Chow Down last year, and by the looks of the footfall, so did all of our guests! So we thought it was only right to bring it back for 2019. We’re excited to be bringing new traders to the Piece Hall for the first time including What’s Your Beef and Tacoporium.

Nicky Chance-Thompson, Chief Executive of The Piece Hall Trust, said: "We are really pleased that The Piece Hall will once again host the hugely successful food festival Chow Down following their debut here last year.
"It was the place to be to soak up all that glorious sunshine, with amazing food and drink pop-ups from across the North, alongside great music and activities, attracting around 120,000 people over four weekends.
"Even if we don't get that astounding weather again (though fingers are firmly crossed), there's no doubt that this summer's three festival weekenders will be packed with fabulous food and fun for all ages."
