The event featured more than 120 stalls, cookery demonstrations, brass bands, a fun fair and live music created across the market town.
Mark Brayshaw of organisers Visit Malton said: “The weather forecasts were perhaps a little pessimistic, but even the threat of the odd rain shower did nothing to dampen spirits, and Malton has been buzzing throughout the three days of the Food Lovers’ Festival.”
