Dear Mike

 

There’s so much going on in Suffolk this Autumn…

 

There’s never been a better time to plan your short break, take in a

festival or two and find out more about the great county of Suffolk!

 

Autumn Fayre

The Aldeburgh Food & Drink Festival, for instance, is one of half-a-dozen festivals you can visit in the mellow months of September and October.  Held at the picturesque Snape Maltings between September 26th and October 4th, tickets are only £5 at the entrance (free for children).

You can browse around the stalls of over 70 local producers, sample the delicious local food, beer and wine and enjoy live musical entertainment every day in a true carnival atmosphere.

You’ve already missed the amazing Sausage and Beer Festival which was held in late-August at Jimmy’s Farm in Ipswich. (You should definitely make a note for next year if you fancy a memorable day out which includes sausage making, live music, beer tasting and much more!). Also at Jimmy's Farm is their first 'Harvest at Jimmys' with sizzling demonstrations from some of your favourite TV chefs, including Jamie Oliver's Fifteen who will be taking over the barn for the duration of the weekend for an interactive cooking experience! KT Tunstall will be playing at the festival. BUT all 8,000 tickets have been sold out (some available on the day) so make a note for next year!

Festivals you haven’t missed include:

Fressingfield Music Festival (22-26 September)

Now in its fifth year and regarded as one of the best small music festivals in the country, Fressingfield features five nights of glorious music hosted by the village’s church of St Peter and St Paul. World-famous cellist Julian Lloyd-Webber is playing on September 25th, with the celebrated soprano Dame Emma Kirkby performing on September 23rd.

Halesworth Arts Festival: (10-25th October)

This very popular Arts Festival sees Julian Lloyd-Webber play pieces by Bach, Britten, Fauré, Debussy, Lloyd Webber, as well as take questions from the audience about his life as a working musician. A very rare treat!
The Festival Art Gallery will celebrate the 200 years since the birth of Charles Darwin and 150 years since the publication of Origin of Species with an exhibition of paintings, drawings and sculpture by Helen Gilbart. Dance East will be running two workshops for young people on Saturday 17th at the Cut dance studio exploring the history of Darwin and the world of evolution. This is a great opportunity to get creative with dance and to make friends for 5-10 and 10-15 year olds.
We will also be bringing you a Cookery Master class from the French chef and author Franck Pontais on Saturday 24th. Franck will be be giving an introduction to artisan charcutier traiteur and classic French dishes from canapés to Oeuf cocottes.
