In a fabulous first for foodies, The Gower Food and Drink Festival will launch next month (Saturday September 7th); over 40 fantastic exhibitors set to tempt the taste buds with an array of sweet and savoury treats, moreish meats, scrumptious ciders, vegetarian varieties, perfect preserves and so much more.
Hosted at the Pennard Playing Fields, the festival – which is funded by the Rural Anchor Fund at Swansea Council – promises fun for all the family with something to suit all diets, ages and interests, children’s activities and also great live music courtesy of some talented local bands and artists planned throughout the afternoon.
Favourites on the Swansea food scene including Distill and Fill with their beautifully bottled cocktails, Babita’s Spice Deli, Tir a Mor Bakes, Gower Preserves and Private Chef Christos – hot on the heels of the opening of the gorgeous Gower Deli – will be joined by a whole host of other Welsh producers at this exciting new addition to the festival calendar.
Whether it’s for the banging buffalo burgers, beers and spirits, ‘Hipi Hipi’ healthy shakes, international inspirations or spicy sensations, The Gower Food and Drink Festival is set to make its mark this year.
Alongside all the fabulous food and drink, locally handcrafted jewellery will also be on the menu and promising a great day, festival manager Tracy James-Lieberman said:
“We’re so excited to be able to bring this event to the Gower – it’s always great to offer something new to enjoy and we’re sure it will prove a huge hit.
“Such a variety of exhibitors and with the family fun planned along with the live music, there’s guaranteed to be a fantastic atmosphere; we’re really looking forward to welcoming festival goers in a few weeks’ time!”
The festival will take place on Saturday 7th September (10am-6pm) at Pennard Playing Fields, Park Road, Pennard SA3 2AQ
