hundreds of people on Hucknall High street for the food and drink festival

Popular Food and Drink Festival is returning for 2022

Ashfield District Council have confirmed that Sunday 21st August will be the date of the next Food and Drink Festival in Hucknall. 

They are looking to expand the offer and are looking for new traders to join returning favourites as the popular Food and Drink Festival returns to Hucknall for a second year.

The first two festivals held in 2021 by Ashfield District Council, in partnership with Lincoln Green Brewery, attracted over 4,000 visitors each. Residents and visitors flocked to Hucknall High Street to sample street food, craft beers and deserts from some of the best food producers in the region.

The Council are specifically looking for traders who sell vegan products and catering options; savoury snacks such as gourmet scotch eggs, sausage rolls; cocktail kits; gin; street food such as Mexican, Chinese, Thai, Korean; artisan bread; coffee beans; and speciality cold drinks such as milkshakes/iced coffees.

Councillor John Wilmott, Councillor for Hucknall North, said:

“We received incredible feedback for the first two Food and Drink Festivals. Thousands attended and we want to make this year's events even better. To ensure that everyone is catered for we are looking for traders who can fill our produce gaps. If this sounds like you, please get in touch and be part of one of Hucknall's most popular events. Save the date – it’s going to be bigger, better and it’s all happening in Hucknall.”
