A new food and drink market is coming to Gainsborough over the August bank holiday weekend from August 26 to August 28.

Lunch Fest will be held at Marshall’s Yard in Gainsborough and aims to tempt foodies down with a great line up of street food traders, licensed bars and flavoursome dishes including a vegan quarter.

Shoppers can expect a range of delicious street food from around the globe including cheesy stone baked pizzas, delicious Greek gyros and Polish grilled sausages and potato pancakes.

Also last month it was announced that the monthly Farmers’ and Craft Markets, which were once hosted by Marshall’s Yard, have completed their transition back into Gainsborough Market Place following a successful four-year partnership between the organisers at Marshall’s Yard and the Local Authority.

After a year spent on Market Street the market will once again be in the centre of town, soon to be transformed by the new cinema development.
