A MAGOR pub has been announced as the latest company to become a supporting sponsor of Newport’s sixth annual food festival.
The Tiny Rebel Newport Food and Drink Festival 2016, takes place on Saturday, October 1, and thanks to the support of local businesses like The Golden Lion, this year’s festival hopes to be the best yet.
The food festival has a connection with The Golden Lion as their produce is sourced locally wherever possible.
Councillor Debbie Wilcox, leader of Newport council, said: “The support of local businesses means so much to the festival.
"We have seen the popularity of this fantastic city event grow year on year and with the support of like-minded companies such as the Golden Lion, we can ensure the festival continues to flourish.”
Louise Jones, owner of the Golden Lion, said: “I am very excited to support Newport Food Festival this year. We are keeping a warm welcome at The Golden Lion for everyone to experience our hospitality.
"We believe in the enjoyment of good food and wine. I look forward to enjoying the 2016 festival with you all.”
The Tiny Rebel Newport Food and Drink Festival 2016 will boast around 80 stalls, the return of the popular Teenchef competition and expert chef demonstrations.
The main activities will centre on High Street, and the areas in and around Newport Market including its gallery level will again have a local focus.
