Wrexham Food Festival back at the weekend

* People at last year's Wrexham Food Festival.

Wrexham Food Festival returns next weekend (September 7 and 8) with organisers promising a 'mammoth Saturday' at the event.

Taking place on Llwyn Isaf / Library Field in the town centre, the festival will bring together more than 80 local and regional food and drink producers selling everything from cakes, pizza, confectionary, gin, coffee and cheeses.

Over the two days there will also be food and cookery demonstrations from local chefs, live music and fairground rides.

The festival will host live music into the evening on Saturday, with Rhythm Train headlining the locally-sourced sounds. A huge firework display will then light up the sky at 8.50pm.

Co-organiser Sam Regan said, "With just under two weeks to go we have been finalising exhibitors, entertainment and the demo chefs and we are all thrilled how the weekend is shaping up, so we are wanting to invite everyone along to what we promise will be a great couple of days.

"Doors open on the Saturday from 10am and for a £4 wristband you can come and go as you please, so perhaps pop down for some brunch, back for dinner and then check out the live music through until 9pm when we will have a huge firework display."

The festival is supported by Wrexham Council offering free parking in council car parks only (apart from Ty Pawb) from 10am on both days.

Co-organiser Alex Jones added: "Everyone had a great time last year and we have built on that event to make things even better this time around, so we hope everyone will join us for what is a really positive enjoyable couple of days in Wrexham town centre. 

“Prices have been kept the same, with wristbands are £4 for adults and £2 for children and under 8’s come in free. There is also a £10 ‘family ticket’ that covers 2 adults and 3 child wristbands, and the wristbands allow re-entry throughout the day.

"Make sure you tell your friends and family and arrange to meet them there, and we guarantee you will have a great weekend in Wrexham."
