A magician, live music and a food fermentation demo are just a few of the attractions at this year’s Leigh Summer Festival at Leigh School, on Saturday, February 8.
There will be continuous on-stage entertainment from musicians and singers, plus local art, a hāngi, kapa haka performances and a wide range of market stalls. Food options will include the ever-popular Leigh fish burgers, gourmet lamb baps and local fruit kebabs, and Wild Delicious food writer Amber Rose will give tips on making and using fermented foods.
The annual school fundraiser will also feature classic carnival favourites such as quick fire raffles for fresh Leigh fish, children’s rides and bouncy castles, the ice slide and face painting. The school pool will also be open for a quick dip.
This will be the third summer festival fundraiser at Leigh, following a switch in 2018 to February from an Easter event in a bid to benefit from better weather and a boost in visitor numbers from summer holidaymakers.
This year’s event starts at 10am and runs through to 5pm.
