Discover what’s on at Lincolnshire Food & Gift, 29th & 30th November at Lincolnshire Showground. Enjoy live cooking demos, festive performances, Santa’s Workshop and up to 150 local exhibitors.
The Lincolnshire Agricultural Society (LAS) are thrilled to share the full programme of what to expect at Lincolnshire Food & Gift this November. This festive indoor event will be packed with exhibitors, free activities for children, performers and live cookery demos in the Lincolnshire Kitchen.
Charlotte Powell, Chief Executive of the Lincolnshire Agricultural Society, said:
“Lincolnshire Food & Gift is all about celebrating local talent and festive traditions. This year’s programme is packed with activities for the whole family, and we cannot wait to welcome visitors for a weekend filled with seasonal joy.”
Upstairs in the EPIC Centre, Santa’s helpers will create a cosy workshop where children can get creative and enjoy activities like decorating pinecones for the Christmas Tree, Shortbread decorating and Children can even make their own Reindeer Food, ready to welcome Santa’s sleigh team.
Rosie Crust, Head of Charity at the Lincolnshire Agricultural Society, said:
“Santa’s workshop not only brings a joyful element to the event, but it also gives us the opportunity to promote our core mission of educating the community about food, farming and the countryside to our younger audiences at the LAS. This completely free offering is organised by us (LAS), and many exhibitors have volunteered their time and resources.”
As well as all the free activities for Children, the whole family can enjoy live performances in the Food Walk throughout the two days, where the likes of BeVox and Lincolnshire Fire & Rescue Band will fill the event with joyful sounds. The Lincolnshire Kitchen will bring the scents of Christmas to the event and attendees can expect to be taught how to cook up a feast to impress at this wonderful time of the year. Top chefs from the White Hart Hotel, Lincoln will be in attendance, as well as local celebrity Chef, Rachel Green, social media sensation Dominic Franks will be hosting a session with Richie Stamp-Mason and we have Great British Bake-Off contestant, Sandy Docherty. We’ve also got the award-winning cocktail masters joining us from the Strait & Narrow to show you how to create some show-stopping cocktails.
New for this year, we have introduced a Quiet Hour on the Sunday of the event. The first hour of trading on Sunday morning (9:00 am - 10:00 am) will be a calmer period and is designed to support visitors with sensory sensitivities or those who prefer a quieter shopping experience. During this time music and announcements will be paused, lighting will be dimmed and performances will not take place to help create a relaxed and quiet atmosphere. Everyone is welcome to enjoy the event during the quiet hour.
