Join Jo Pratt for this inspiring Seasonal Dinner Party Masterclass designed to take the stress out of entertaining and give you the confidence to host beautiful, effortless dinner parties at home.

This hands-on class covers a delicious three-course seasonal menu, brought together with straightforward, approachable cooking techniques and Jo’s signature relaxed style. The focus is on food that looks impressive yet remains achievable, with an emphasis on stylish, attractive presentation and clever ideas that elevate simple dishes.

Throughout the session, you’ll take part in hands-on cooking, picking up invaluable tips along the way, smart make-ahead strategies, and adaptable recipes that can be easily tailored to suit different dietary requirements and guest preferences.

Jo will also share insights from her cookbooks, including her flexible approach to cooking that helps you build confidence, reduce stress, and make entertaining feel genuinely enjoyable rather than overwhelming.

At the end of the class, everyone will gather to sit down together and enjoy the three-course menu you’ve helped create, accompanied by a glass of wine or a soft drink.

You’ll leave feeling inspired, well-prepared, and ready to host stylish, stress-free dinner parties with ease - whatever the occasion or season.

She’s published numerous cookbooks with her latest series of ‘flexible’ cookbooks very much focusing on offering flexible and practical recipe solutions that fit around the demands and challenges of modern life including dietary requirements or lifestyle choices.

At the outset of her career, Jo gained a huge amount of knowledge, skill and expertise from many years of working alongside hugely talented restaurant chefs, including the late Gary Rhodes, Gordon Ramsay, Jamie Oliver and John Torode, working on their books, tv shows, advertising campaigns and live cookery demonstrations.

Nowadays when she’s not at Divertimenti Cookery School or writing books, you’ll often find her presenting recipes online, on TV, working with various food brands, on stage performing live cookery demonstrations and hosting cookery workshops.

Our partners have been chosen with great care, as all our equipment must stand up to the day-to-day rigours of our cookery school – much like a professional kitchen, that you can enjoy using whilst creating your own amazing dishes in class to give you the best possible experience when cooking with us.

Our classes and outstanding range of teachers will help you hone your gastronomic skills, even if you are a complete novice or a dab hand in the kitchen. We love highlighting new upcoming food trends and championing the rising stars within the culinary world.
