ORGANISERS of the Hereford Indie Food Festival 2022 thanked the people of Herefordshire after an “incredible” turnout as it was held for the first time in years.

More than 7,000 people visited the festival, which was based at the Rule of Tum’s restaurants in Aubrey Street.

Food businesses from across Herefordshire and music from acts such as DJ Trevor Nelson and Everything Everything made the event, held for the first time in five years, a success, organisers said.
