A food and drink festival is returning to an East Yorkshire town.

The Market Place in Pocklington will host stalls selling locally made produce and crafts, East Riding of Yorkshire Council said.

There will also be live entertainment, featuring music, comedy and activities for children.

The festival takes place on Saturday 4 October and Sunday 5 October.

Councillor Nick Coultish said the council was "excited" the festival was returning to the town.

"This event is now a fixture in the town and plays a vital role in generating opportunities for Pocklington businesses," he said.

It runs from 09:00 to 17:00 BST on both days and more information can be found on the event's website.
