Huddersfield Food and Drink Festival 2015 is just weeks away, with organisers promising this year's offering will be bigger and better than ever.

From cookery demos to the finest local produce, real ale and cocktail bars and tasty food from around the world, the festival brings thousands to St George's Square every August.

This year's festival begins on Thursday August 6 — and taster event the Real Ale and Cocktail Trail kicks off on Saturday.
