Chicken wing fans from across the UK will once again converge on Stratford this weekend, with the largest chicken wing festival in the world taking place at London Stadium across three days. No fewer than 45 acclaimed wing slingers from all over the country will be slinging wings in the hopes of ruling the roost at London Wing Fest 2025.

Wing Fest 2025 music programme

From Friday to Sunday, it's estimated around 500,000 chicken wings will be devoured by hungry punters, but there's more to Wing Fest than just food. DJ sets and live bands help set the mood, while all sorts of entertainment, from axe throwing and thrilling rides to eating competitions, make sure there's no lull in the excitement. The main event is the declaration of the London Wing Fest 2025 champion, with the title going to the best wings according to the combined opinion of an expert jury and public vote.

Tickets to Wing Fest 2025 start at £30 and include entry, all live entertainment, and a branded trucker hat, while the wings inside cost a flat £1.50 per joint. You can find out more about the festival and book your spot here.
