Borough Market is once again joining forces with the Delegation of Catalonia to the UK to celebrate St. George's Day. The special Sunday event (21st April, 12-4pm) will celebrate the sharing of our patron saint – St George.

Borough Market traders will be showcasing the best of their produce including a special English charcuterie platter from Cannon and Cannon, dragon-themed baked goods from Bread Ahead Bakery and delicious specialities from Tapas Brindisa.

There will also be Demonstration Kitchens throughout the day showing you how to create both traditionally English and classic Catalan dishes. The festivities will be set to a soundtrack of music and theatre performances to entertain the whole family.

The exchanging of roses and books as a sign of appreciation is something of a Catalan custom and the UK delegation of the Government of Catalonia will perform the ritual with members of the public, while traders will hand out roses to revellers throughout the day.
