Following the recent story within Lichfield Live about Festivals & Events in the City, and from watching festivals being discussed in the District Council Cabinet Meeting, we would like to redress the balance and demonstrate what we as a team are planning, to make the 10th Lichfield Food Festival the best weekend ever for all concerned.We would like to address:
• Our support of local businesses and residents
• How we ensure traders are in the right spot at the right time
• Ensuring visitors health & safety is at the foremost of our planning
• Showcasing and marketing who’s coming along
• And how we plan to market the festival so that it not only fills the streets on the August Bank Holiday weekend but also gives people the reason to re-visit the city, and the businesses within it.
We are continuously grateful for the constructive comments made on social media. From here we would like to invite anyone (business owners, local residents, Councillors) that would like to attend, to an open evening at a suitable venue where you can come along and grab a coffee and hear everything connected with the Food Festival from the team at Cocker Hoop Creative. We would like to invite you to ask questions and generate open conversations, about an event that has now become a huge part of our City’s Event Calendar.
We’ll tell you:
• What areas of the City we’ll be using in 2022 and explain some of the reasons why we’re not using other areas
• How we support local businesses and how they can receive help if they don’t have the right equipment
• Where is best to park your cars
• Who’s going on the cookery theatre
• Social media activity
• Competitions
• Anything and everything you need to know.
Most importantly for us it’s to make sure we’re all on the same page, and we make 2022 the greatest year yet for our Food Festival.
Prior to the event, our inbox is open, we would love to discuss anymore items you would like to see on the agenda, so we are able to prepare appropriately.
