Get ready to kickstart a healthier and more delicious new year! Popular Co. Armagh-based Chef Stephen Beaddie, known to many as Chef Stevie B, is bringing his inspiring ‘Plate Up with Stevie B’ live shows to the Waterfront Hall in Belfast.
These two unique events, taking place on 12 February and 11 April 2026, are much more than just cooking demonstrations. Stevie B blends live cooking with insightful conversations about nutrition, audience interaction, and practical takeaways that you can immediately apply in your everyday life. His core philosophy is that healthy food should always be full of flavour, enjoyable, and sustainable, no matter how hectic your schedule gets.
The ‘Plate Up’ events are perfect for anyone in our community looking to improve their lifestyle and cooking habits – from keen foodies and busy professionals to those focused on health, wellbeing, and performance.
Show One: Plate Up for Flavour – 12 February 2026
This evening will focus on how to make healthy food genuinely delicious. Hosted by wellbeing coach and co-founder of Little Penny Thoughts, Annette Kelly, audiences can expect to see vibrant dishes come to life, enjoy some humour, and receive practical advice to take straight into their home kitchens.
Show Two: Plate Up for Performance – 11 April 2026
This show dives into high-flavour meals designed to fuel strength, focus, and recovery, all without overcomplicating nutrition. Special guest speakers include Tony O’Neill and Jen Curran, founders of Tony & Jen’s, who will share straight-talking performance nutrition tips, creative ideas, and healthy snack demonstrations.
Speaking ahead of the events, Chef Stephen Beaddie shared his excitement: “I’m incredibly excited to bring Plate Up to Belfast and finally share this experience live with the community that’s grown online over the years. These shows are about flavour, real life and giving people the confidence to cook food they enjoy, without overcomplicating things. Turning those everyday conversations into a live, interactive event at the Waterfront Hall feels special, and I can’t wait to meet people in person, get cooking and have some fun together.”
Rob McConnell, Chief Executive of ICC Belfast, Waterfront Hall, and Ulster Hall, added: “Plate Up with Stevie B is exactly the kind of live experience that resonates with audiences today – engaging, practical and firmly rooted in real life. By bringing together food, nutrition and honest conversation in an accessible and enjoyable way, these events go beyond entertainment, offering insight and inspiration that audiences can take straight into everyday life.”
