APPLICATIONS are now open for stalls at a popular food festival set to go ahead this summer.

The Bridport Food Festival will be going ahead this year, with some changes to the format to allow for social distancing rules.

The team behind event, the Bridport Local Food Group, is now taking applications for trading at the Bridport Food Festival Food and Drink Market on the Millenium Green on Saturday, June 19.

The food and drink market will run from 9am until 5pm, with at least 30 local food and drink stallholders being invited to showcase and sell their produce.

The round table will be operating a 'beer gazebo' and the Bridport Local Food Group will be running their popular festival tea room. There will be also be a large picnic area on the green and live music for entertainment.

Entrance to the event will be free to the public on the day.
