SOUTHSEA FOOD FESTIVAL 2010
CULINARY EVENT RETURNS FOR FOURTH YEAR RUNNING
 
The fourth Southsea Food Festival will return to the area this summer and promises to satisfy the heartiest of appetites!
 
The Southsea Food Festival will be in Palmerston Road precinct on Saturday 19 June and Sunday 20 June. Visitors will be able to sample some of the finest and freshest produce available from the continent and local traders and farmers. The free event forms a focal part of the month long Portsmouth Festival of Food, and this year promises to be even bigger and better than before.
 
The festival includes a kitchen theatre with professional cooks providing master classes, compered by Wave 105 celebrities, the finest produce from local and national traders, a children's zone with farmyard animals and a huge variety of drinks from real ales and fine wines to champagne.
 
Ample temporary cycle stands will be available in the vicinity to encourage visitors to ride rather than drive over what promises to be a great weekend. Plenty of parking will also be available at Waitrose, the seafront and surrounding area.
 
An International style market sets up on Thursday, trades through Friday and becomes a major part of the Festival on the Saturday. Sunday sees a different offer with Hamphire farmers occupying the Palmerston Road precinct.
