St Ives Food & Drink Festival

The Food & Drink Festival has been running since 2010 and gets bigger and better every year. The 2012 festival runs from Monday 21st to Sunday 27th May 2012.

This year we will be running a special tour for the festival featuring the history of food in St Ives. The tour will depart from the usual place outside the Guidhall at 3pm on Thursday 24th May 2012. Advance booking is not essential but we do expect the tour to be popular so please let me know if you plan to come along so we can arrange extra guides if necessary.

You can find out more about the festival at their website at: www.stivesfoodanddrinkfestival.co.uk

St Ives September Festival

The St Ives September Festival is the major annual event in St Ives, celebrating all forms of art and culture.This year’s festival runs from Saturday 8th to Saturday 22nd September 2012.

This is the busiest time of year for the tours, and we will be running the usual schedule of drop-on tours, plus some extra tours to cope with the high demand – further details will be released nearer the time. Private tours can still be booked during the festival, but with a minimum charge of £50 per tour applying for the fortnight.

Details of the line-up for the festival will be released throughout the year – see www.stivesseptemberfestival.co.uk for details.
