Our food options at the Festival follow our aim of supporting local community groups and showcasing organisations and businesses that operate on or near the canal, year-round.
You can find snacks, drinks and other food choices at a number of the stalls or social enterprise operations who are attending the festival and we have also provided a list of cafes that are either at or near to the Canal Festival zones.
Please do visit our local businesses, who all help to make our local area a vibrant place – you might even find a new favourite cafe!
