A Festival You Won’t Want to Miss

A Festival You Won’t Want to Miss

Prepare your tastebuds for a fantastic lineup of mouthwatering street food and artisan delights from some top traders. From delicious bites to refreshing drinks, there’s something for everyone.

Enjoy award-winning chicken wings from Gurt Wings, irresistible donuts from Pipp & Co, and refreshing pours from Just Pressed Cider. Alongside these favourites, you’ll find a fantastic variety of local wines, craft beers, cocktails, and more!

Beyond the food, there’s plenty to keep you entertained. Soak up the atmosphere with a live DJ, learn new skills at a cocktail masterclass, and watch live cooking demonstrations. And for something a little different, don’t miss our brand new blindfolded eating competition introduced after last year’s chilli-eating challenge proved such a hit!

We’re also delighted to welcome Helen from Cook Stars Bristol North, who will be offering free cookie decorating sessions for children. There will be vegan and gluten free options available, along with the chance to sample her popular bake at home cookie kits.
