Festival season is still in full swing and next up on the Bristol calendar comes Valley Fest. Situated in the stunning Chew Valley, just nine miles from Bristol, this foodie festival boasts a lineup of some of the biggest names in music, workshops, poetry, comedy, family fun and, well, a lot of delicious grub to feast on.
