Gluten Free Event at 70 Marks and Spencer Stores

About a week ago signs started popping up in various Marks and Spencer stores advertising a gluten free event, we heard that 70 stores across the UK are holding this gluten free event with most stores doing it on the 10th or 11th May although there are the odd ones holding it on the 8th or 9th. Marks and Spencer have kindly sent us the list of all 70 stores after we got bombarded with people asking if there local branch is holding the event, so now you can find out if yours is holding the event or not.

The event invites you to try their new products in a tasting session and find out more about their gluten free range, the posters are telling people to "find an advisor to sign up" to the event so if yours is listed I would be ringing or calling in to make sure they know you are attending the event.

We assume the event will be mostly focused on the new ranges which have come out in recent weeks, you can find details on all the new products in these two blogs; Marks and Spencer Made Without New Products April 2017 and Marks and Spencer make second April Made Without Release.

Check to see if your store is holding the gluten free event in the table below, there is only 70 stores so they are more than likely the largest food halls, but they seem to be well spread out over the country.

I think there is a discrepancy on the date, please correct me if I am mistaken but according to my diary may 10th is Thursday NOT Wednesday as stated on the list of events. Which is it please 9th or 10th May ?

Hi Lee, these events are nothing to do with us and we're just sharing the information about the events. We suggest you contact Marks and Spencer them selves with regards to asking whether other stores will be able to do the event.
why no portsmouth or fareham marks and spencer

This is a shame, I've only just seen/been made aware of this (10.50pm 11th May). <br/>I would have liked to have tried to make it along to one of these as my daughter who has coeliac disease does enjoy your food, so it would have been nice to try to give feedback on anything new. <br/>We are in south Essex so if any more of these are to be held then one close by would be much appreciated, haha.
