World Pasty Championships

The Eden Project is host to the World Pasty Championships which celebrate the traditional Cornish pasty recipe, as well as some more unusual varieties. From the Americas to Australia, pasties derived from recipes passed down by Cornish emigrants over centuries are eaten and enjoyed by many millions of people. Entries are invited from around the world for the Championships.

Celebrate a few days ahead of St Piran’s Day (Cornwall’s national day) with a great line-up of live music and other pasty-themed fun! The legendary Fisherman’s Friends and Cornish rap duo Hedluv and Passman will be providing entertainment on the day. In the evening, come to the Oggy Oscars Ceremony where the champions will be announced, and then enjoy live music and a few beers in the Mediterranean Biome after.
