James Whelan Butchers: Live Twitter Panel Covering Tipperary’s First Food Extravaganza

Twitter Panel Covering Christmas Extravaganza EventThis year marks Tipperary’s first ever Food Extravaganza in association with Bord Bia and the Tipperary Food Producers Network. The event, which takes place in the Clonmel Park Hotel on November 10th at 7.30pm, aims to showcase and increase awareness of local produce in the run-up to Christmas. We are organizing a panel of high profile tweeters to attend the event, along with 4 students from the Food Connect programme, to share their experiences in realtime on Twitter. The event will consist of each producer showcasing their products from a stall, a range of canapes made from local ingredients, a number of cooking demonstrations from Sheila Kelly and Sarah Baker and a talk from Master of Wines, Jane Boyce.

As the Food Connect programme is running simultaneous to this event, this is a great opportunity for students to learn how twitter can be implemented to great effect in a practical, real life scenario. Anyone attending the event is encouraged to tweet their experiences of the night using the hashtag #tippfood.
