On Saturday and Sunday 3rd and 4th August the Middleton Railway plays host to its first ever Food and Drink festival ‘A Taste of Yorkshire’. This indoor and outdoor event is the only event of its type in the area.

This 2 day event will celebrate the very best regional favourites and local produce. Hot and cold food will be available to buy on site all weekend as well as goodies to take home. Local breweries, a cider bar and cocktail bar are all attending. Over 25 different beers and ciders will be on offer across the weekend.

On both days, live music and children’s entertainment will be available. Demonstrations, free samples and more to be enjoyed.
