We apologise to your wallets and waistlines in advance…
With less than 2 weeks to go until the Independent Birmingham Festival at The Bond, we decided to make you all hungry and show you just one of the dishes from each food/drink trader that you can monch on and whet your whistle with on 18-19 May. We’ve curated what we’re hailing as our very best food/drink line-up ever for an Independent Birmingham Festival and we can’t wait to introduce you to new independents (and new eats and drinks) on the day. What with all this food, over 20 indie retailers, artists and makers in our indoor market hall (many of which are also bringing mouth-watering treats for you to indulge in), and live music from local bands all weekend – the Independent Birmingham Festival is set to be a seriously unmissable event.
Note: Saturday is officially SOLD OUT! Grab your Sunday tickets fast to avoid missing out! Grab yours now –> here
