sorted byThey were obviously struggling to sell tickets as a day or two before, they emailed to say that I could have double the amount of free tickets so that I could bring friends. It was short notice and I'm glad that I didn't bother as, after paying for parking we walked around the small amount of stalls (taking around 10 minutes), bought some overpriced, tasteless "Street food", ate it while watching a mediocre music act and then went home.
We usually love a good festival and have been to quite a few (paying for them). This was easily the worst.
There were lots of stalls - craft sellers, fresh food, charities like Guide Dogs, fresh pet food retailers like Tails.com. Also lots of places to eat with prices between £8-£12 for burgers etc. Lots of bars too at pub prices. Kids rides priced at local funfair prices. Lots of people taking their dogs hence all the pet food retailers.
There were no freebies unless you include half filled shot size samples of mocktails and tiny slivers of turkish delight.
Plenty of people took chairs and picnic blankets placing them by the music stage. Keep an eye on their Facebook page as they brought forward the band time on the day we went by a few hours.
We stayed for around 2 hours and enjoyed it but there's no way they can justify the ticket prices. It's worth going though if you can get free tickets.
Parking fee was steep, but didn't mind too much as 4 of us in the car. Going again this year
NOTE - if free tickets sell out, use code TELEGRAPH25 for a 25% discount off prices, if you do want to go
Edit - just checked and it's the same this year. Not sure about other venues, but info. can be checked at the Foodies website foodiesfestival.com/ (edited)
I was bombarded with emails from Foodies Festival organisers with offers for this year's events but resisted, hoping for another D.T. offer - and it paid off!!
I can't help but notice the programme has all the demonstrations ending around 5-6pm, so apart from the exhibitors and the music acts, likely not much to see in the evening.
