We are incredibly proud to work with like-minded brands that resonate with our goal to ignite a sense of outdoor adventure and curiosity in the wild. The aim of the Orvis Saltwater Fly-Fishing Festival is to do exactly this, by simultaneously exploring the joys of fly fishing and our UK coastlines‚—both of which are so easily accessible. The support of brands like DeliVita and BBQ Magazine, who helped fire up the Saltwater Social at this year's festival, is integral to achieving our goal. Without our powerful partnership with them, YETI®, Fulling Mill, and the Fly-Fishing Journal, this year's Saltwater Fly-Fishing Festival would not have been the same.
DeliVita
DeliVita is an independent British brand that has designed and created a stylish, portable, handcrafted wood-fired oven, alongside a range of purpose-made accessories. DeliVita was born from a passion for authentic Italian cuisine and launched in 2016 by Joe Formisano. Orvis UK was delighted to have the team on board at this year’s festival along with DeliVita Chef Ambassador Marco Biasetti, who cooked a fantastic selection of fresh pizzas that night, while ice-cold BBQ Mag-brewed beers were served in true style—in YETI coolers.
YETI®
We were thrilled to be working with our Orvis Saltwater Fly-Fishing Festival partner, YETI, again this year. Founded in 2006, YETI’s mission was simple—to build a cooler for the serious outdoor enthusiast—one that could take the challenges of being used out in the field and on the water. The products that followed can be used anywhere from fly fishing on the beach to having a few drinks with friends in the garden. Their mantra, 'Built for the Wild,’ inspires a sense of adventure and exploration—YETI fits in perfectly with our fly-fishing lifestyle.
BBQ Magazine: Fire, Food & Outdoor Living
BBQ Magazine: Fire, Food & Outdoor Living is a multimedia platform for everyone—beginners, enthusiasts, and pit masters—across print, digital, and live events. BBQ publishes recipes, tips, reviews and interviews from the global barbecue village, anchored by our quarterly print magazine and amplified by digital and social media content, as well as curated live-fire events at festivals, hotels, restaurants, and pubs.
“We were delighted to work with Orvis, through our partnership with Zambuni, who share our values and our love of outdoor living, dining, and entertaining.”
—Rupert Bates, BBQ Editor

Quality is at the heart of everything they do at Fulling Mill, where each and every fly is lovingly made by highly skilled artisans.
