Marvellous Moussaka and Gyros made to traditional Greek recipes, tasty Bratwurst or Currywurst sausage cooked on the huge traditional German Schwenkgrill and delicious Dutch Pancakes are just some of the tempting treats on offer.

There will also be a variety of crafts and gifts to discover, including African soaps and candles, handmade Ecuadorian jewellery and beautifully crafted pottery from Tunisia. A wonderful array of artisan food, drink and craft products from a mix of local traders will add to the event, including intricate original paintings and prints and freshly made, frozen lemonade.
