Rick Stein is set to share festive culinary inspiration in Bath as part of his new UK tour later this year.

The multi-award-winning chef will be at Bath Forum on Tuesday, December 2, with his tour, Rick Stein’s Countdown to Christmas.

The tour will consist of eight dates, beginning with the Cambridge Corn Exchange on Monday, November 24, and ending at Edinburgh’s Queen’s Hall on Monday, December 8.

Tickets are available now at rickstein.live.

The tour will accompany the release of Rick’s new book, Rick Stein’s Christmas, set to be published by BBC Books on Thursday, November 6.

The show will feature “heartwarming stories, expert tips, and plenty of culinary inspiration” to help audiences prepare for Christmas.

Describing his new venture, Mr Stein said: “Food is a fundamental part of the magic of Christmas – it’s interwoven into all our fondest memories.

“I can’t wait to share some of mine on stage.

“It’s been fun doing the previous tours, so I hope that more people will come to hear my stories and enjoy them as much as I do telling them.”

Mr Stein’s talk will include everything from timeless Christmas classics to spiced-up dishes inspired by his global travels.

He will also offer practical advice on timing, planning, and dealing with unexpected mishaps.
