Thousands of people took advantage of the sunshine on Saturday at the Taste Cumbria food festival in Wigton.
With live music, family fun and a craft market in the Market Hall, the festival was the first Taste Cumbria event of the year.
It saw more than 40 stalls across the outdoor and indoor locations. There was a hot food court, cocktail bar, and live music stage, with a picnic area where visitors relaxed in the sunshine.
Children’s entertainment was provided by Liam Moorhouse, free face painting by Carlisle’s Aura Body Art and climbing wall and fairground rides from Wilmot’s Attractions.
The Taste Cumbria food festivals are organised by Cumberland Council.
Taste Cumbria Wigton will be followed by Taste Cumbria Maryport on Saturday August 8 and Sunday August 9 August, before the flagship Taste Cumbria festival in Cockermouth on Saturday September 26 and Sunday September 27.
Taste Cumbria Christmas takes place on Saturday December 5 and Sunday December 6 December, also in Cockermouth and there are plans for Taste Cumbria in Carlisle, with dates yet to be finalised.
