Music, food and family fun bring the weekend to a close

THE SECOND day of the Narberth Food Festival (Sunday, September 28) saw another strong turnout as families and visitors flocked to enjoy the closing day of the town’s flagship event.

The festival site was filled with live music, children’s entertainment, and the aromas of street food and artisan produce, bringing a carnival atmosphere to Narberth.

Street performers and family entertainment
Stilt walkers, bubble displays and circus skills performers kept younger visitors entertained, while face painting and craft activities ensured the festival’s family-friendly appeal. Crowds gathered to watch jugglers, musicians and street entertainers, adding colour and energy to the market stalls.

Food and drink highlights
Local and regional producers once again took centre stage, with stalls offering cheeses, breads, patisserie, charcuterie, curries and sweet treats. Artisan drinks were also popular, with distillers and cider-makers showcasing the best of Welsh produce. Demonstrations in the Food Theatre included appearances from chefs and producers, giving audiences tips and tasters throughout the day.

Live music and atmosphere
The entertainment tent drew large audiences with performances from local musicians, providing a lively soundtrack to the day. Families gathered around long tables to enjoy their food, soaking up the festival’s relaxed community spirit.

A successful weekend
Organisers said they were delighted with the turnout across both days, with thousands of visitors attending over the weekend. The event, now in its 25th year, has become a staple in the Pembrokeshire calendar and continues to showcase the very best of local produce and culture.

The festival committee thanked the volunteers, performers, producers and visitors who made the weekend a success, and promised to build on the event’s strong reputation in years to come.

PREHISTORIC FUN COMES TO MILFORD HAVEN

DINOSAURS will be roaming Milford Waterfront later this month as Dinomania brings a day of prehistoric entertainment to the town.

The popular dinosaur attraction will take over the waterfront on Wednesday, May 27, with three interactive shows taking place throughout the afternoon.

Each show will last around 50 minutes and promises plenty of audience participation, prehistoric facts, and family-friendly fun.

Before the ticketed shows begin, visitors are being encouraged to keep an eye out around Milford Waterfront, where Dinomania’s dinosaurs will be out and about during a free walkabout performance between 10:30am and 11:30am.

The walkabout will give families the chance to see the dinosaurs up close and enjoy some entertainment around the waterfront before the main shows get underway.

Milford Waterfront said: “Dinomania will be taking over Milford Waterfront on Wednesday, May 27, with three exciting shows taking place throughout the afternoon.

“Each show lasts approximately 50 minutes and is packed with interactive moments and prehistoric fun.”

Tickets can be booked through the Milford Waterfront website.

A NEW exhibition exploring memories of growing up on a council estate has opened at the Waterfront Gallery in Milford Haven.

Artist Lynn Stuart is launching the gallery’s new exhibition space with her solo show, Hubberston Girls, which runs until Saturday, May 30.

The exhibition features a deeply personal series of works drawn and painted on brown paper. The material was chosen for its connection to everyday memories, including lunch bags and magazines wrapped in paper.

Once oiled, the paper becomes semi-transparent, allowing paint to be applied to the reverse and creating layered, intimate images.

The Waterfront Gallery is extending its opening hours for the exhibition and will be open Monday to Saturday, from 10:30am to 4:00pm.

A private view will be held on Thursday, May 14, from 3:00pm to 6:00pm, and all are welcome.

The gallery is based in the Old Sail Loft on Discovery Quay, Milford Waterfront, Milford Haven. It is one of south west Wales’s leading art galleries, a registered charity, and home to the Wales Contemporary annual competition.

The gallery is run by artist volunteers who exhibit there regularly.

A FAMILY dinosaur show 65 million years in the making is heading to Milford Haven this summer.

Dinosaur Adventure Live: Danger on T-Rex Mountain will headline the Torch Theatre on Thursday, July 30.

The interactive stage show promises storytelling, puppetry, humour and science as young audiences join a team of rangers on a mission to recover a data crystal, restore power to the island and save the dinosaurs.

Children will be encouraged to stomp, roar and swish their tails as they meet baby dinosaurs, learn “Dino-Facts” and come face-to-face with a roaring T-Rex.

Created by Mike Newman, the producer behind Exciting Science, the show is now in its fifth year and is aimed at families with children aged four and over.

The performance lasts one hour, with no interval, and there will be a meet-and-greet after the show.

Tickets are available from the Torch Theatre.
