THE county’s biggest food festival has been cancelled by organisers, Visit Herefordshire, for 2015.

But a smaller, replacement one is being organised by Worcester-based events company IK Events.

We asked readers who took part in this week’s online poll whether they would have paid a proposed £3 entry fee if it meant the original Flavours of Herefordshire Festival could go ahead.

A total of 603 people took part in the vote, at herefordtimes.com, and a majority of 64 per cent said they would have paid the £3 entry fee.

However, 29 per cent of people disagreed and said they would not have paid that price.

A further five per cent of people said they did not care, while the remaining two per cent said they didn’t know.
