Swansea's brilliant Street Food Festival is returning to the city on Easter weekend - and there will be almost 30 traders to choose from - with each serving completely different meals and snacks to the rest. Across the vibrant stalls and quirky food vans, customers will be spoilt for choice with an array of international cuisine represented, including Indian, Japanese, Moroccan, Greek, Thai and Jamaican food as well as classic street food choices like fried chicken, mac & cheese and loaded fries - and there will be lots of sweet treats to sink your teeth into too!
The food festival, hosted by Street Food Warehouse, is being billed as "four days of foodie heaven" and is now in its fifth year. Last year's popular event saw around 20,000 people - and organisers say this year's event will feature more traders than ever before, as well as an entertainment stage with live music and and fun for all the family. There will also be a bar serving draft beers, handcrafted cocktails and soft drinks from morning to night.
The Street Food Festival is free to enter - but this year, people will need a ticket to gain entrance. There are also VIP packages available.

Please note, after water-logging at the original Museum Park site; the Swansea Street Food Festival has now changed locations. In an update on social media on March 30 organisers said: "NEW LOCATION ANNOUNCEMENT: Swansea Street Food Festival HAS MOVED!
"New location: next to the Boer War Memorial, Mumbles Road, SA2 0AY (Opposite St Helens Sports Ground). Due to the recent wet weather and waterlogging of the Museum Park site, Swansea Street Food Festival is moving location!
"It's a shame to move from our beloved Museum Park, but we are very excited about our new location! Under 5 mins drive and 20 min walk from old site to new, plenty of parking nearby, sea views as the site is practically on the beach, dry feet, no need for wellies, dog- friendly."
