Who really does the best wings? - You decide! Vote on the day!

The world's biggest chicken wing showdown is coming to Derby to provide the answer to that burning question - who really does do the best wings?  On the 19th, 20th and 21st of May at Bustler Market, wing slingers will work their culinary magic to be crowned King or Queen of Wings in three categories:

Best Buffalo Wing

Described in the North American dictionary, from where this mighty morsel hales, as "Deep-fried wings coated in a spicy sauce." Of course to those in the know, this description simply doesn’t do this wonderful creation justice and the search for the best is fiercely contested across the world.

Best Wild Wing

This category is looking to explore and demonstrate the many exciting ways a chicken wing can be prepared and served in the broadest sense possible. In this category anything goes. Any flavour, any technique, any taste. Basically the rule is, there are no rules.

Best BBQ Wing

This all time classic flavour deserves its own category, which we introduced in 2023. Experts in this distinguished field use everything from fire, smoke, fry and bake, not to mention incredible sauce recipes that are often handed down from generation to generation. This is a big category and a very popular.


All wings will be sold in individual joints drums or flats for £1.25 each to allow voters to try as many wings as possible from each of the contestants.

For the greediest of wing eaters among you, the always popular Flying Goose Wing Eating Competition will be taking place on Saturday and Sunday.

 Clifton Chilli Club will be guest hosting the deadly Lava Wing Challenge, the UK's hottest wing challenge, and renowned for the carnage it causes. It will take place on Friday and Saturday.

Sign up for the eating comps is on the day, and will be announced from the main stage.

Competitors will have to adhere to strict rules to make it even more of a challenge! 

This event is taking place outside and inside. We hope for sunny weather but please prepare for any conditions that may be advised.
