After a two-year absence, Newport Food Festival returned with a tasty bang this weekend. On Saturday (October 8), foodies gathered in their thousands to Newport's city centre streets.
There were plenty of food stalls as traders showcased the best in food and drink from across the city and the wider region. Returning alongside the stall holders were chef demonstrations at the Newport Now Zone at Newport Market, which included demos by Hywel Jones of Restaurant Hywel Jones at the Lucknam Park Hotel and Spa, James Davies of Horton's Coffee House and Steve White of the Mercure Hotel.
The festival also had a full programme of activities taking place including face-painting and roaming street theatre. Entertainment included music from the Gwent Music Community Choir and street entertainment from the Hungry Chefs and the Flying Seagulls.
