More vendors and acts announced for Falmouth Food Festival

Next weekend, between the 26th and 28th of May the town of Falmouth will be enjoying its first-ever food festival in the lower section of the Church Street Car park.

If you're a Nub News reader you may have seen an interview I did back in March with Harry Mills who has organised the festival with his friend Barney Farnworth. You can read all about it here: The story behind Falmouth's first ever Food Festival.

Earlier this month Nub News also shared the First batch of vendors and musicians announced for the festival which included the full lineup for Friday.

Now Harry and Barney have shared even more flavours and acts alongside a full Saturday lineup, let's take a look.

On top of new vendors added to the festival, Falmouth Food Festival has also confirmed two more acts that will be performing over the weekend.

The Might Howlers- Hard-hitting no-nonsense approach to Chicago Blues which you will not be able to resist. Their tough, high-energy, performances have proved to be very popular with both the dance crowd and the blues purists. Those members of the audience who would not have considered themselves devotees of Blues Music at the start of the evening, tend to be wholly converted by the time The Mighty Howlers have completed their roaring sets.

They will be closing act on Friday evening.
