Shopping centre teams partner with Lexus to deliver Food Festivals and drive footfall

1 May 2018

Food festivals organised by two DPL shopping centres are being partnered by the premium car company Lexus.

The Fox Valley Food Festival on June 16th and 17th and the Morpeth Food and Drink Festival on October 6th and 7th are being sponsored by Lexus Sheffield and Lexus Newcastle.

The Morpeth event is staged across the whole town and Co-ordinated by the team from Sanderson Arcade - it celebrates its 6th anniversary this year. The Fox Valley event is being staged for the first time at the north Sheffield shopping centre which last year hosted the finish of the Tour de Yorkshire.

Both events will offer a full weekend of local and international produce and live entertainment with a demo kitchen showcasing the talents of local chefs at the heart of both festivals.

The Lexus team will have a strong presence at both events with thousands of visitors anticipated

Operations Director at Dransfield Properties, Medi Parry-Williams said: “Our Morpeth Food Festival has grown into a huge regional event in recent years and last year we attracted around 45,000 visitors so we were keen to offer the same kind of high quality event at Fox Valley.

“We really value the relationships we build up with our sponsors and we are delighted to have Lexus on board at both of these major events this year.”

The Fox Valley Food Festival coincides with the centre’s second birthday - it was officially opened by Joanna Lumley OBE in June 2016.
