The popular Tewkesbury Food & Drink Festival returns to the town on the 25 - 26 June 2016 in what is set to be another fantastic event. The festival is again, going back to its roots - being held in the stunning Tewkesbury Abbey grounds and will provide a weekend of fun and foodie delights. All of the original popular highlights will be there including a Food & Drink marquee with more than 60 stalls offering a wealth of local produce including award-winning cheeses, locally reared meat, homemade cakes and pastries, local wine, beer and cider plus much more. The event will feature a cookery theatre with live demonstrations from local chefs and experts.

A seagull turned bright orange after falling into a vat of curry.
While looking for food, the gull fell into the container of chicken tikka masala from a food factory in Wales.
The bird was brought over to the Vale Wildlife Hospital near Tewkesbury. A team of staff worked hard to return the bid to its original plumage.
Lucy Kells, a veterinary nurse at the hospital in Worcestershire, said: "He really surprised everyone here - we had never seen anything like it before.
"The thing that shocked us the most was the smell. He smelled amazing, he really smelled good." The gull will remain inside the centre for a couple of weeks because it is underweight. The scavenger bird will then be sent to an outdoor aviary centre before returning to the wild.
