Food, music and fun on the menu at busy weekend for Fox Valley’s Lunchfest
23 June 2025
The crowds turned out for a great line up of food, fun and entertainment at Fox Valley’s two-day Lunchfest at the weekend.
The annual food festival was sponsored by Simon Blyth Estate Agents, and featured a line-up of food and drink stalls as well as music and entertainment across the weekend.
And despite the occasional summer showers the crowds turned out to sample foods from around the world and enjoy music and entertainment from a line up of talented local performers. The event also hosted ‘Music in the Piazza’ in collaboration with the Valley Music Festival.
Around 30 food and drink vendors took part in the Lunchfest event with everything from pizzas to bubble tea, chicken skewers and delicious Jamaican and Greek food. Devons Kitchen, the Greedy Greek and Yorkshire Crepe Company were among the traders serving up tasty dishes – alongside local beer from Bradfield Brewery.
The event was also an opportunity for the stores and restaurants at Fox Valley to get involved.
Ponti’s Italian Kitchen at Fox Valley created a buzz in the piazza area with a fabulous porchetta hog roast and the launch of Peroni Capri and the Old George Café served up delicious drinks and sweet treats. The team from the Shackleton’s café also handed our free samples of their delicious cake and cold drinks and four-legged friends enjoyed their doggy treats from House of Chester.
The event took place in the market area at Fox Valley with a bar and seating area – children’s entertainment included rides and free face painting as well as activities hosted by Little Einsteins.
Centre manager at Fox Valley Claire Biltcliffe said: “The weather was a bit mixed at the weekend, but when the sun shone the crowds were out and enjoying the food and entertainment. Thankyou to everyone who came to join us and all the brilliant traders and entertainers who made Lunchfest 2025 a lovely event.
“The event also celebrated the centre’s birthday – and in 2026 we’ll be planning our 10th birthday! So a very special year for everyone involved with Fox Valley.”
