The autumn leaves are dying away, and a chill is beginning to fill the air. Winter is on its way and Christmas is just around the corner.
That’s right, if you haven’t already started, you better start thinking about Christmas shopping. But there’s no need to panic, as we have the perfect solution to solve all of your seasonal shopping stresses.
Avoid the crazy dashing around on the high streets, and instead, come and join us at the Lincolnshire Food and Gift Fair on the first weekend of December.
The Lincolnshire Food and Gift Fair
The Lincolnshire Food and Gift Fair, now in its 17th year, is becoming one of the biggest and best food festivals in the county, with over 150 stands spanning over two large halls. And as this is an indoor event, you don’t need to worry about the wintery weather outdoors.
The stalls will be bursting with locally sourced foodie favourites and unique hand-crafted gifts.
But the fun doesn’t stop there. You and your family will be able to experience cooking demonstrations with tips from the experts, craft workshops, and not forgetting the wine tasting.
Festival Details
