Mike Quinton, FeastFest founder said:
“We are very excited about welcoming both regular and new attendees to our biggest and most diverse FeastyFest yet! Now running over two days and with some really exciting artists, more activities and an array of food and drink stalls that will satisfy even the biggest foodies, we’re sure that there is something to keep everyone in the family entertained. It’s been a long hard struggle to get where we are, but to see the faces young and old having such a great time, combined with the money raised for good causes, really makes it worthwhile - roll on September!”
