The Lincolnshire Food & Gift Fair 2024

Visitors paid compliments to the high quality and variety of stallholders at this year’s Food & Fair, which was held at the Lincolnshire Showground, with over 150 exhibitors – including retailers, growers, designers and producers – attending the two-day event.

The Lincolnshire Kitchen returned this year and audiences enjoyed demonstrations from local food heroes including chefs Richie Stamp-Mason from The Red Lion Inn at Raithby and Dominic Franks of ‘Dom in the Kitchen’ and Lincolnshire Life fame.

There was free entertainment for the whole family to enjoy, including Christmas decoration making and carol singing by local choirs.
