Great news for Bradford, the city has been named Curry Capital of Britain for an unprecedented sixth year in a row.
Visit Bradford, the tourism department for Bradford Council, accredited its winning streak this year to a bid focusing on the theme of celebrating achievements including a special Curry Capital Olympics event, followed by a traditional garden party celebrating the Queen’s 90th birthday.
Judges praised the ‘Bradford Blueprint’, each year Visit Bradford’s entry into the Curry Capital of Britain competition works to promote community cohesion through a mutual love of Asian food, while raising much needed funds for charitable causes, such as the Curry Tree Foundation.
Councillor Sarah Ferriby, portfolio for Environment, Sport and Culture said:
“To say I’m thrilled is an understatement – I’m absolutely over the moon. To win the award for a record-breaking six years in a row is testament to the hard work and dedication of our team.”
