World Championships - How they work

The Cullen Skink World Championships is organised by Cullen Voluntary Tourist Initiative, with the event usually taking place at the Cullen Bay Hotel. Spectators are welcome to the event.

Two competitions are held on the day; the Traditional Cullen Skink and Cullen Skint with a Twist and contestants can enter either or both competitions.

Judges will taste each competitors version in a blind tasting, with the contestant with the highest score being declared as the Cullen Skink World Champion for each competition.

Come along and spectate, try the different competition entries and see if you agree with the judges as to who is the Cullen Skink World Champion!
