A special Port Sunlight Foodie Tour will give visitors the chance to explore the hidden stories of the village’s food and drink from the past, including the chance to sample the recently rediscovered Port Sunlight Bun, an early 1900s attempt to create a distinctive pudding to rival the Eccles cake. Tickets are limited and pre-booking is essential – book tickets here.

In addition to the makers, you can enjoy performances by Sing the Musicals Choir and Port Sunlight Ukulele Group.
