THIS weekend (September 2 and 3), Hereford Food Festival will be returning to the racecourse for family fun, live music, entertainment and of course food.

There will be a large inflatable kids’ zone with all day access, live bands from 12pm to 10pm, street food from around the world and a whole lot more.

The event showcases the best food and drink from across the county, with lots of food and drink vendors, as well as craft stalls and activities for children.

Acts set to perform at the festival include the Hey Yahs, Robyn Regan, Charles Antony and Lucia.

New bosses are at the helm of the popular food festival this summer, as Sophie Sherief, the previous organiser, is stepping down this year.

However, Ms Sherief said the event would be “bigger and better than ever” and that she would still be involved as marketing manager.

“I loved running the Hereford Food Festival and thank you to everyone who supported the event,” she said. “It was a true pleasure, and a very huge part of my life, one I’ll always cherish. I’ll still be sliding into your social feeds on a constant basis as I am staying on as the marketing manager and helping in a very small way behind the scenes.”

The new directors are experienced working in the food industry and music festivals.

Adult tickets cost £15, children’s cost £5, and a family ticket covering two adults and two children is £30. Concessions cost £10 and this includes a carer. There is disabled access throughout the event.
