York food and Drink Festival

Enjoy traditional family fun and fabulous food in the heart of Yorkshire!

York Spring Fair & Food Festival brings together a great vintage funfair and a Food Festival showcasing the very best artisan products from Yorkshire and beyond. Take an exhilarating ride on the 1936 Speedway, race round the Brooklands Dodgems from 1937, go for a spin on the stunning 1930s Chair-o-Plane or get a bird's eye view from the Big Wheel! Children will love riding the Toy Set, Swing Boats, Muffin the Mule and Hush Hush the Train - the oldest ride made in 1933 - plus there’ll be giggles galore with Magic Mirrors. Test your skills at the Rifle Range, for some competitive family fun have a go at Football Darts, or try your luck with Hook-a-Duck. There’s prizes aplenty! Then treat your tastebuds to some of the finest locally-produced food and drinks and support local traders – there’ll be bakeries and beers, savoury and sweet treats, as well as cheeses to please and the Berry Best Ice Cream. A vintage double decker bus – the Yorkshire Bus Bar – will add more than a touch of colour, serving fabulous local gins and Yorkshire’s finest ales as well as a range of other refreshments.
