Historical Cookery School: The Real American Burger (Age 6 to 11ish)

Build a burger from bun to ketchup

This half-term workshop takes children into the kitchen with Cotswold Cookery School to make an American burger from scratch. They can choose a beef or vegetarian patty, make the bread roll and prepare a jar of tomato ketchup, with ingredients included and burgers for four to take home.

The session is part of Cirencester History Festival's family programme and marks the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. It is aimed at ages 6 to 11ish, and the festival says parents can drop and go. Families should check allergens and dietary suitability directly with the organiser.

Festival venue information lists level entry, accessible toilets and two disabled parking spaces at Corinium Museum. Old Station, Brewery, Sheep Street and Abbey Grounds are the nearest listed car parks.

Ticketed. This session is sold out, with a waiting list available through the organiser.
