A fresh new food and drink festival is taking place in Margate for the first time over the bank holiday weekend.

The new event for the town promises both fun for foodies and three days of family-friendly entertainment.

There will be street food served from pop-up kitchens and artisan drinks and groceries from around the world to tempt the tastebuds plus a selection of craft beers, ales, ciders and wine.

There will also be a line-up of live music from The King Elvises on the Sunday, fairground rides and a chalk graffiti wall, plus face painting and story telling on the Saturday and Sunday.

The venue will be Fort Crescent, next to the Winter Gardens, from Saturday, May 5 to Bank Holiday Monday, between 9am and 8pm on Saturday, 10am and 8pm on the Sunday and 10am to 5pm on the Monday. The festival is free to enter.
