Preparations for Milford Fish Festival are stepping up a gear with only two weeks to go until thousands of visitors flock to the two-day event.

Throughout Saturday and Sunday, June 25 and 26, an exciting line-up of bands and live entertainment will be on the main stage, including The Review, The Collective, Honey Fungus, The Blims and Rick Berry and the Retropex.

Children can hone their culinary skills at Healthaspire’s Children’s Cookery School which will include making fish cakes and decorating their own chef hat. The sessions are free, but places must be booked online in advance at www.milfordfishfestival.co.uk as they’re expected to fill up quickly.

Also on offer for the younger visitors will be on-water activities, fish themed crafts and pavement painting.

During the weekend, a wide range of stalls will be selling fresh fish and shellfish in the Fish Fantastic marquee and cookery demonstrations will be held by ‘The Great British Bake Off’ star Chetna Makan, award-winning Saundersfoot chef Will Holland and Guy Morris.

Early bird tickets are now available online which means you can beat the queues and make the most of reduced rates. To book, please visit www.milfordfishfestival.co.uk

Pembrokeshire Fish Week, which takes place between Saturday, June 25 and Sunday July 3, will be co-ordinated by Pembrokeshire County Council.
