So why not turn that saving into something special?
This year, there’s an even bigger reason to upgrade your day: legendary chef Marco Pierre White will be hosting an exclusive VIP breakfast experience across the opening days of the show.
A VIP breakfast with a culinary icon
Taking place within the VIP enclosure at Ragley Hall during The Game Fair 2026 (24–26 July), “Mr White’s Breakfast” promises to elevate the traditional countryside breakfast into something truly memorable.
Widely regarded as the godfather of modern British cooking, Marco Pierre White – the youngest chef ever to achieve three Michelin stars – has created a morning menu inspired by his passion for wild game and seasonal British produce, featuring Mr White’s Breakfast Bangers, Dry-Cured Streaky Bacon and Farmhouse Black Pudding.
Expect a refined take on the classic full English breakfast, served in relaxed surroundings and designed to start your Game Fair day in true style.
More than just breakfast
The experience doesn’t end once the plates are cleared.
Marco will be in residence in the VIP enclosure for lunch on Friday and Saturday. Whether you’re enjoying a delicious three-course lunch or just an afternoon cocktail, you may find yourself chatting with one of Britain’s most influential chefs about cooking, countryside food and the field-to-fork philosophy that underpins it all.
