How to buy your tickets for this years Stone Food & Drink Festival

Another thank you - and it’s a BIG one!

Without the small army of volunteers who work tirelessly in the run-up to, during and after the ‘big weekend’ the Stone Food & Drink Festival simply couldn’t happen.

It takes serious manpower to run an event of this scale - so a huge thanks to everyone who donned a white hi vis, be it for a few hours or several days, your support is vital!

Big thanks also to Wendy & Dave for working with us throughout the year to recruit, engage and organise our volunteers - you are simply awesome! 🙌

We can’t wait to see you all at our volunteers’ thank you event - details coming soon!

In the meantime, if you’d like to join our merry band get in touch - [email protected]
