"We’re delighted to welcome back the Continental Food Market to Castleford. It’s a fantastic opportunity for people to enjoy a mouthwatering mix of global street food. The upcoming food festival is the perfect opportunity to pick up festive treats and gifts for food-loving friends and family. There’s something for everyone.
