This august Bridlington’s popular food festival will be back for the second time, with more than 30 stalls showcasing the best Yorkshire produce and eateries.

Her parents were former market stallholders for 30 years on the King Street site.

She said: “My dad used to organise some great events down on King Street in his capacity as chairman. Sadly my parents have both passed away and left a gap on the once thriving market.

“French patisserie, Indian food, breweries and award winning flapjack to name just a few of what the second festival will have to offer. We are also doing one in September and October.”

“I have just been given the all clear for the grand finale November 19 in conjunction with light switch on. There is already a lot of work going into that one for a Christmas finale.”

The festival will take place on King Street, Bridlington, on August 20 and starts at 9:30am until all has sold out.
