The Food and Drink festival returns this summer.

The Harrogate Food and Drink Festival is coming back to the Stray next month.

The ever-popular family event will again feature live music, cooking demonstrations, funfair rides, tribute acts and more.

The event has been described as a place to soak up a "buzzing atmosphere" and celebrate all things food, drink and entertainment.

So ahead of the 2024 event, here's everything you need to know...

Dates and times

The Harrogate Food and Drink Festival on the Stray will run on Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th June.

The festival will be open from 10am and closes at 8pm.

Entertainment

Although this year's entertainment, music acts and chef demonstrations are yet to be confirmed, the Festival has teased another fantastic lineup.

A spokesperson said:

"Catch our performers on the live entertainment stage, where you can pull up a deck chair, set down your picnic blanket and grab some food before watching the show.

"Keep your eyes peeled for our roaming attractions making their way around the site as well, and be sure to grab a photo!"
