Savour the date: It’s the return of the Heart of the Shires flavour-filled Food Festival.
It’s a celebration of all things food: Brilliant burgers, super samosas, perfect pizza, licensed bar, cakes, bakes and so many local makes.
There will be classic and vintage cars around the site and not one but TWO brass bands playing throughout the day. Bilton Brass Band from 11am and Dunchurch Brass Band from 2pm.
More to see!
Our fantastic independent retailers with our new extension too. Come and say hello.
More places to just chill!
You’ve got it with extra space to do just that.
In with action or away from it all with some peace and quiet.
Admission: Free – and there is Free parking too!
No library, AI or stock photos here either – straight from the grills and via the skills of our fantastic foodies that will be at the event.
It’s the independent retailers that really are the heart of the site and they too are really backing the special day.
Richard Taylor, from the new The Plant Barn says “It’s a great opportunity for people to visit the site and see all the changes to this lovely setting. We are part of the south-side extension and have a fantastic range of indoor and outdoor plants, pots, containers and gifts for the garden and gardener. For the day, we’ll be offering 10% off for Loyalty Card holders. If it’s your first visit you can sign up and use your card on the day – it’s completely FREE.”
Ashleigh Loach runs The Dog Barn, she says “Four-legged friends are welcome to our Food Festival with so much for them to see, sniff and do both at The Dog Barn, Poodle Paws Dog Grooming and throughout the site. Don’t let your furries miss out on the fun!”
Heart of the Shires Administrator, Gail Cleland says. “These free events showcase the very best of the site. We are really looking forward to the day. Our Food Festival this weekend is a lovely opportunity for visitors to look around the site. The events are so popular with another Food Festival in July, then Meet the Animals returns in August. Later in the year our popular Scarecrow Festival and then for Christmas we will welcome a Christmas Fayre. It’s all set to be amazing at Heart of the Shires.”
We’d love to invite you, your family, your friends and even your dog to our historic site.
It is from 10am to 5pm. Heart of the Shires Shopping Village – just off the A5 near Weedon.
Don’t mmmmmmmmmiss it!
