Calling all Oktoberfest fans! A new festival inspired by the popular Bavarian event is coming to Norwich.

Springfest, a one day extravaganza celebrating global food, drink and entertainment, will be taking place at OPEN on Saturday, March 24.

Held in the Banking Hall, the festival will incorporate all the fun of Oktoberfest by featuring a selection of Bavarian beers and cocktails, as well as a diverse range of treats from Africa, Asia, The Americas and other parts of Europe.
