We are buzzing with excitement as the annual Ginger & Spice Festival returns, bringing with it a vibrant mix of food, fun, and entertainment. This year, the event has received generous support from the Market Drayton Town Council through its Community Support Scheme, further solidifying its place as a key event in the town’s cultural calendar.
Mayor Roy Aldcroft expressed the Council’s enthusiasm for the festival, stating, “The Ginger & Spice Festival brings a wide range of food interest, fun, and entertainment to our community. As Mayor of Market Drayton, along with all our Councillors, we really appreciate the hard work that goes into running this event and have demonstrated our commitment through the Community Support Scheme. This event has now lodged itself on our calendar of events and brings recognition to our Gingerbread history and an opportunity for local food producers to show what a wonderful array of food is produced and sold locally.”
The festival not only celebrates the town’s rich gingerbread heritage but also provides a platform for local food producers to showcase their products. With the support of the Town Council’s Community Support Scheme, this year’s event promises to be bigger and better than ever, drawing visitors from near and far to experience the unique flavors and vibrant atmosphere of Market Drayton.
The Council’s backing through the Community Support Scheme underscores their dedication to fostering community spirit and supporting local businesses, ensuring that the Ginger & Spice Festival continues to be a highlight for years to come. We are extremely grateful for their continued support.
