Free two-day food festival returns

-

A FREE food festival, which attracted around 13,000 people to its previous events, is returning this year.

The Big Welsh Bite is a food and drink festival which is making its return to Pontypridd’s Ynysanghar­ad Park on August 6 and 7, and hopes to welcome back people from across the country.

The two-day festival hopes to offer a wide selection of food, as well as craft stalls, and other attraction­s like in previous years. The 2022 event will be sponsored by Nathaniel Cars.

The event promises fun, food and entertainm­ent for all the family. It will offer live cookery demonstrat­ions, delicious food and sweet treats for sale. There’ll also be live entertainm­ent.

The event is organised by Rhondda Cynon Taf council for the What’s On RCT events calendar.

Simon Gale, director of prosperity and developmen­t at Rhondda Cynon Taf Council, said: “We are so pleased to see the return of our What’s On RCT events programme.

“It has been a difficult few years and we are looking forward to bringing people together in beautiful destinatio­ns such as Ynysanghar­ad War Memorial Park and Aberdare Park and our town centres, for events.

“We really do have something for everyone, from the dinosaurs and land train at Aberdare Festival to the food-lovers’ paradise that is the Big Welsh Bite.

“As well as being a great way for us to bring our communitie­s together and celebrate life in Rhondda Cynon Taf, it’s also a chance for us to showcase our county borough to a wider audience, attracting visitors from further afield to spend time here and explore.”
