The first West Norfolk Seasonal Food and Drink Festival taking place in Hunstanton this weekend

Delicious food and refreshing drinks will be in abundance this weekend when a new town festival takes place for the first time.

The first West Norfolk Seasonal Food and Drink Festival will open to visitors to Hunstanton’s High Street this Sunday, taking place between 10am and 3pm.

The event has been spearheaded by Mark Kacary, the managing director of The Norfolk Deli in Hunstanton, who is also a member of Hunstanton’s Advisory Group and The Hunstanton Event Committee.

He first had the idea towards the back end of 2022, and plenty of businesses based on the High Street will be taking part.

They will include distilleries, breweries, and vineyards, as well as businesses making dog treats, cake, bakes and and sweet things, porridge, honey, and chili sauces.

Chocolatiers, jam makers and more will also be on hand.

Mr Kacary previously said: “This event could not be happening without the support of a lot of people, including the town mayor, town, borough, and county council as well as the support of the businesses in the high street.

“We want people who live in and around Hunstanton to re-engage with the businesses on the High Street and to show off to others that there is more to see here other than the sea.”

Details on who will be at the event can be found here.
