Southport Food and Drink festival is set to make its long-awaited return this weekend after being cancelled last year due to the pandemic.
The three day festival, which takes place in Southport's Victoria Park from September 3 to 5, is anticipated to attract thousands of visitors.
Described as a 'foodies paradise' visitors can expect to enjoy a range of food from crepes and gourmet burgers to spiral potatoes and various curries with free entry.

"Our teams have worked hard to ensure we can host a safe and enjoyable bumper weekend of the best food, drink and much more for thousands of visitors.
"Foodie fans will love the hand-picked selection of the region’s most passionate producers, all of whom will be bringing their wares to the festival, including a wide selection of gift ideas and treats to relish at home.
"You can also keep your little ones entertained with a free Children’s Festival, along with arts and crafts, magic shows, storytelling and sports workshops.
"It's guaranteed to be a fantastic weekend and we want as many people as possible to come along and enjoy the fun.
