Food festival will be 'better than ever' promise organisers

 

* The live music programme for the festival.

Llangollen Food Festival is on today and tomorrow and organisers say it going to be better than ever.

They say people planning to come along should prepare to indulge your taste buds, groove to live music and watch mouth-watering food demonstrations.

They can also keep the kids entertained and enjoy exclusive ticketed tasting events.

Exhibitors are the heart and soul of this festival, with around 70 vendors selling everything from Portuguese pastries to Welsh wine and handmade cheeseboards.

For the first time the festival will be making full use of the bandstand and Riverside Park which will feature live music from local bands and performers plus a selection of vendors selling everything from Jamaican street food to crepes and gourmet Mac n’Cheese.

Renowned chefs will showcase their skills and share their secrets. 

A spokesperson for the festival said: "It's like watching a cooking show, but better, because you can smell and taste the results, and interactive workshops by Xplore will help keep the children entertained."

The exclusive ticketed tasting experiences will be:

* Penderyn Whisky Tasting's went down so well  last year that they've been welcomed back on Saturday evening. You can taste three of the famous Welsh whisky maker’s finest offerings alongside cheeses, chutneys and crackers courtesy of The Little Cheesemonger.

* On Sunday, a selection of creations from The Little Cheesemonger will meet the rich, malty, and hoppy profiles of carefully selected beers from local brewery the Hafod Brewing Company.

Rounding off the festival, Pip Gale of Llangollen’s Gales Wine Bar will take people on a tour of Italian wines from the Valpolicella region, from crisp whites and sparkling options to robust reds, culminating in a taste of the renowned Amarone.

Tickets for all three tasting events are available from Ticketsource. Over-18s only.

Car parking will be free all weekend on all Denbighshire County Council car parks in Llangollen.
