Whitchurch Town Council has announced it is bringing back Whitchurch Food & Drink Festival after a successful relaunch last year.

The award-winning events team, Shropshire Festivals, are delivering the festival for the council. The event will include live music on the bandstand, stands from local businesses, street food, bars, chef demonstrations, a kids’ entertainment area, and a garden area with hands-on activities from local organisations.

Beth Heath, Shropshire Festivals’ Director of Fun, said, “We are delighted to have been asked to deliver this brilliant event once again. The 2025 festival received an enormous amount of positive feedback, with families and friends enjoying live chef demonstrations, music performances, free kids’ activities, and a selection of stands from local businesses in the heart of the town. Whitchurch is such a warm, welcoming town, and is absolutely packed with talented chefs and producers - I’m so glad it can all be celebrated at the festival this May.”

Whitchurch Food & Drink Festival is free to attend and will take place at Jubilee Park on Saturday 16 May from 10am until 6pm. To find out more or apply for a stand, visit whitchurchfoodanddrinkfestival.co.uk
