A popular food and drink festival returns to Maryport this summer.
The Taste Cumbria event will take place in the Cumbrian town on Saturday, August 8, and Sunday, August 9, and will once again span two locations.
Organisers say the expanded format will help "makes the very best use of the town’s waterfront" with activities stretching across the Marina showfield and the new Harbourside event space.
The new Harbourside event space was created as part of Cumberland Council’s £12 million regeneration of the town.
Festivities begin at 10am and will run until 5pm on the Saturday and 4pm on the Sunday.
Highlights at the Marina site will include a producers’ market, hot food stalls, a festival bar, live music, and fairground rides.
Children’s entertainment will feature face painting and arts and crafts.
The Harbourside will offer a demonstration stage, market traders, and an acoustic stage offering sea shanties and storytelling.
