SALISBURY Food and Drink Festival served up a tasty treat for thousands of visitors who came along to enjoy the four-day spectacle.

Upwards of 8,000 people came along to the festival events, which ran from Thursday to Sunday.

New for this year was the Salisbury Taste Trail which gave food lovers the chance to sample a range of delicious delights across the city.

The festival market returned on Sunday with a mix of stalls as well as cookery demonstrations and live music.

MasterChef finalist Juanita Hennessey made her festival debut - demonstrating some of her favourite recipes. And Jeff the Chef and Peter Vaughan also showcased their culinary skills during live demonstrations at the Sunday market.

Peter Vaughan and Jeff the Chef said: "It was a fabulous festival. I'm not a great fan of the word 'best ever' but both Jeff and I reckon that that was pretty much the best we've experienced together in terms of crowds and general liveliness."

During the festival there was also a special screening at Salisbury Arts Centre of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
