Get ready to experience the joy of the festive season at this year’s Lincolnshire Food & Gift event, held at the Lincolnshire Showground on Saturday 30th November and Sunday 1st December 2024. With over 150 exhibitors showcasing everything from handmade fudge to artisan gin, live performances by local choirs, cooking demonstrations, and festive fun for kids, it’s a day out the whole family can enjoy.

 

Returning exhibitors include A W Robinson, The Straw Collection, The Event Gallery, and Myers Bakery. This year, we are also excited to welcome many new exhibitors such as Fred and Emily, a bespoke jewellery producer, LapageMade, Badgers Chilli Kitchen, and Renegade & Longton, a local vineyard.

 

For food enthusiasts, the Lincolnshire Kitchen will host a variety of live cooking demonstrations. Highlights include Kathryn Leverick from Cocoa Encounters with a chocolate tasting session, and the return of Richie Mason and Dominic Franks with another festive recipe. Uncle Henry’s will also be back with a special butchery demonstration.

 

For the little ones, we have a very special guest—Santa Claus himself! He will be spreading early Christmas cheer at this year’s event. Children can visit Santa’s magical lounge, where he’ll read one of his favourite festive stories. Each child will receive a small gift and enjoy a glass of milk and a cookie while listening to Santa read. There will also be a chance to have a photo taken with Santa to capture this magical moment.

 

Lincolnshire Agricultural Society Chief Executive, Charlotte Powell, said:

 

“It’s that time again for our beloved Lincolnshire Food & Gift Event at the Lincolnshire Showground! It’s a fantastic experience for the whole family, featuring live music, cookery demonstrations and festive workshops for the little ones.

 

Whether you’re on the hunt for unique Christmas gifts, indulging in seasonal treats or simply looking to get into the festive spirit, this is the perfect place to be.

 

Children will especially love Santa’s Workshop and Bakehouse, along with the chance for Storytime with Santa Claus—just remember, spaces are limited, so be sure to book your tickets in advance!

 

We are passionate about supporting our local businesses, which is why we’ve kept ticket prices low, hoping to welcome as many people as possible. With your support, all proceeds will go back to our charity!”
