Festival of Food & Music, South Hill Park
A Food & Music Festival at beautiful South Hill Park
This is a free event, (other than car parking) I thought it might be nice to go in the company of fellow Spicers. There is a parking charge, which is £5 in advance, (+£2 booking fee) but £10 on the day. If you chat to friends in advance, maybe you can car share!
You can bring picnic blankets and chairs, I think people did bring picnics last year (not Spice members, we made use of the vendors) but the food and drinks on offer are very tempting, so you don't need to bring anything.
I'm unable to host this year so I'd be really grateful if someone would be prepared to host. Nothing too arduous, maybe just hold a spice sign in an agreed spot so people can find you.
I attended last year and it was a lovely afternoon (apart from the showery weather!)
