A big fat yes to food and film festival
Smith Street barber Paul Evans, one of the organisers of the event, scheduled to take place from August 17 to 25, said ideas have been flooding in from every quarter of the town.
He said: “Restaurants, cafes, furniture makers , museums, vets, Warwick Racecourse, the castle and local MP Chris White have already been asking how they can be part of the festival.”

Mr Williams told him: “We were already thinking of a food element to our race meeting in August and so I immediately saw this as a wonderful initiative which we hope to fully support.”
Screens and food stalls will be set up in Smith Street and other venues around the town.
