The Caerphilly Food Festival is going at it alone in 2013 for its second year in existence. Following the overwhelming success of 2012, with the food festival coinciding with the Olympic Torch Relay event this years food festival, which is part funded by the Welsh Government, will fill the streets with delicious smells and wonderful sights.
To help you get the most from the festival the food festival website is now live to give you up to date information on what is taking place at the event. Continuously being updated, the website covers the vast array of activities and events that will be taking place on the day, from cooking demonstrations, craft workshops and musical performances. The website will also have all the travel and access information to ensure everyone can arrange their day for maximum enjoyment.
The Food Festival which will take place on 4th May has a special guest in the form of a celebrity chef. If you fancy having an autograph off or picture taken with Jean Christophe Novelli then Caerphilly is the place to be! Jean will be carrying out cookery demonstrations, book signing and autograph sessions throughout the day. Visit www.caerphilly.gov.uk/foodfestival to view full details about the event.
Cllr Ken James, Cabinet Member for Regeneration, Planning and Sustainable Development said, “The Caerphilly Food Festival is great day out for the whole family and to get the most out of it I recommend everyone heads to the website so they can ensure they don’t miss out on anything on the day and plan a stress free journey to and from the town centre.”
The day certainly promises to bring a bustling atmosphere to town, as local producers and demonstrators display their wares. Sizzling sounds and delicious smells will fill the air, with lots of other entertainment for the children including food craft workshops, animal displays and activities, face painting and so much more.
There will be an abundance of attractions for visitors of all ages to see, with fun activities and entertainment enhancing the new street festival, bringing fantastic colour and excitement to Caerphilly.
