From 10.00am - 4.00pm come along and bag yourself some of the region's finest produce, including the very best breads, soups, cheeses, meats, sweets, pastries and hot food.

Local celebrity chef Brian Mellor will be cooking up a storm in the Covered Market Hall from 11.30am, with demonstrations on how to make the very best of local produce. He is a passionate supporter of specialist food producers in the North West and has been involved in everything from cooking for celebrities and teaching dinner ladies, to television appearances and judging cookery competitions.
Jazzing up the occasion on Bridge Street will be Live Jazz North West, a talented trio with Paul Baylis on Saxophone, Vinnie Parker on Piano and Nick Blacka on Double Bass playing some tasty tracks to get you in the mood.
