When? 03 August 2024
Where? Dorchester
The Dorset Food and Arts Festival is back on the menu, and ready to champion the best of Dorset and showcase a great line up of local food, drink, art, craft and community talent.
Join us on Saturday 3 August from 10 – 3 on the Great Field in Poundbury, as we bring together a FREE mini ‘pop-up’ festival market!
It’s the perfect opportunity to shop for a wide selection of delicious products and artisan crafts.
Grab a bite to eat and enjoy a tipple as you shop with local stallholders, producers, and makers – offering tasty food and drink, handmade gifts, art, and beautiful crafts.
The icing on the cake is that when you shop at events like this, you get to MEET the amazing people who make, bake, farm, grow, cook, preserve, pickle, and serve you with all this local loveliness – many of them award-winning!
