The two-day North Norfolk Food and Drink Festival has been hailed a huge success, with 10,000 attendees over the weekend. 

The event returned for its 14th year and took place in the Walled Garden at the Holkham Estate, near Wells. 

There were more than 60 local food and drink producers there, offering everything from gin, wine and ales to oils, cheeses and chutneys.

Ben Keeley, chairman, said: "The festival is all about supporting our local producers, so it is incredibly satisfying for our small committee of five volunteers when it is a success and producers go home delighted at the end of the weekend.

"It truly is one of the best foodie events of the year and a last celebratory hurrah at the end of summer.” 

The 2025 dates have been announced as the weekend of September 6 and 7 2025.
