THE Fryers Street Food Festival is scheduled to return in November 2021 and will be delivered by local event organisers Liz Connick of Your Project Partner and Jamie Lea of JL Productions.

The pair partnered up for the first time to deliver the 2019 food festival which brought together 57 food vendors and four performance stages featuring local artists.

More than 11,000 visitors attended the festival over two days.

Greater Shepparton City Council’s manager economic development, Anthony Nicolaci, said it was a pleasure to see the duo take on the festival once again.

“Between them both they have extensive experience in event management and are passionate about showcasing all our region has to offer,” Mr Nicolaci said.

“This year has seen our visitor economy industry hit hard with the restrictions. Although we cannot deliver the event this year, it is positive to see people return to indoor and outdoor dining in our region.”
