This year's Brighton & Hove Food and Drink Festival has been launched and is going strong, with a full menu of events throughout September and into October! There's loads going on, with big events each weekend and lots of restaurant specials, training courses, community events and Open House dining in between.

Some things to look out for include the Big Sussex Market on North Road and Jubilee Square (11-12 September), Fabulous Fruit Cookery courses (16 and 30 September), a screening of Food Inc with discussion and networking to follow (22 September), Harvest's Local Food Picnic (25 September) and Apple Day at Stanmer Park (26 September).

And this is just a taste! View the full listing on the Food Festival's website for more info about these and other Festival events. And don't forget, Harvest is organising the first event Local Food Week during the festival with lots of community and school events, a food quiz, allotment events and more.
