* Crowds at last year's food festival.  

Foodies are expected to come flocking to Llangollen this weekend to tuck into the town’s famous Food Festival.

With over 90 stalls spread throughout various locations in the town, Saturday and Sunday will boast a bumper menu filled with culinary delights, chef demonstrations, tastings, and live music.

An impressive line-up of local and regional producers on a diverse range of stalls will showcase products including artisan cheeses, handmade chocolates and street food.

The food court, located at Riverside Park, will be the heart of the festival, providing a perfect spot for attendees to relax and savour delicious bites.

Throughout the weekend, local chefs will host live cooking demonstrations, sharing tips and techniques that inspire culinary creativity.

There are plenty of things for children to enjoy including a Foodie Treasure Hunt, starting from the Town Hall and a special show entitled Disgusting Digestion.

Tomorrow (Saturday) evening sees a Real Ale Train running on which beer fans can sample a range of brews from the region as they head through the scenic Dee Valley.

The steam train departs Llangollen station at 6pm with two round trips to Carrog and returns at around 9pm.

Ticket price includes two beer tokens and additional tokens can be purchased for £4 each.
