A jewel of the Festival! A gourmet luncheon that's more than fabulous food, it's an experience! You'll be treated to delectable foods prepared by Peterborough's local chefs, while being entertained by local celebrities. A fun event of laughter, merriment and great food, with some "special surprises." This premier event always sells out quickly, so book early for office/staff tables or a gathering of friends.
