The Town at it's Best!

On Saturday, over 30 local producers packed into the Carfax - from Sussex cheeses, lamb, cakes, fresh fish, artisan bread through to local beers and ciders. Live Cookery Theatre showcased the best chefs in the area. Thousands flocked to the town centre to enjoy the taste and spectacle. This was a fabulous start to the month-long Festival of Food and Drink in the District.

On Sunday, many enjoyed free tastings from restaurants, pubs and specialist stalls in the Nibble Trail. This was the first year for the Trail and we were thrilled to see a queue waiting patiently in the rain, clutching their County Times vouchers. As we were over-subscribed, this is certainly one that will grow in the future. In addition to this, Horsham hosted the  Festival of Sound with stages all around the town centre, there were free historic bus rides and even a classic car rally.

Horsham Markets were thrilled to work alongside Horsham District Council's events team, the Sussex Food Network, Festival of Sound and everyone else who helped turn Horsham into such a fantastic local food and live music haven for the weekend. Well done also to David from our own Bangers Galore and Anthony from Deli-Welli-Doo-Daaa who did us all proud at the live cookery kitchen!
