World Cheese Awards
Omtrent 4500 oster skal bedømmes av 250 dommere fra inn- og utland. Ostene fordeles ut over flere bord hvor ulike dommerteam smaker seg gjennom ostene og identifiserer gull, sølv og bronse-oster, samt at de velger ut én ost på hvert bord som skal videre til superfinalen. Bedømmingen foregår på fredagen og er åpent for publikum med dags- eller festivalpass.
The super final
The 16 best cheeses will be tasted by a panel of judges, live on stage, and the world's best cheese will be chosen. Open to anyone who has purchased a ticket.
