ANNUAL CHRISTMAS ‘TASTE’ EVENT RETURNS TO KING EDWARD’S WITLEY

Christmas food and craft festival taking place Sunday 4th December 2016.

Beat the crowds and get ahead with your Christmas shopping this year by visiting ‘Taste’, an exciting popular food and crafts festival hosted by King Edward’s Witley.

The event is being run by seasoned event organisers Splendid Occasions and is free to members of the general public. Once again, ‘Taste’ will see the School’s Exhibition Hall transformed into a bustling food market, showcasing the very best culinary delights produced by locally sourced producers. From scrumptious street food to indulgent cupcakes and brownies, the list of delicious gourmet goodies on display is endless - and even if you don’t buy, you certainly won’t go home hungry after visiting the wide range of stalls. And don’t forget to enter into the festive spirit by sampling the seasonal ‘driver friendly’ non-alcoholic Christmas Punch which will be on sale …

In addition to gastronomic gifts, Taste will also feature exhibitors offering excellent craft inspired Christmas present ideas, including elegant jewellery, delicate fused glass, fragrant candles / diffusers and beautiful scarves. Jazz and vintage singer Kerry Le Bern will be performing a wide range of classic nostalgia and contemporary music throughout the day.
