"We have a great line up in the Festival Kitchen this year...with artisan chocolate making, award winning chef, Syrian dishes and more. Plus, new for this year, Relish will be hosting a pop-up Mediterranean Feast on Saturday evening from 6.30pm, pop into Oriel Davies for tickets."
The children’s village plays host to a popular range of activities returning again with Woodland Classroom, Junk Percussion, Rush glitter and face painting, Zu Aerial and Magik Incorporated. New to 2019 will be The Traditional Fairground Co.
