For a decade, Street Food Circus has been running successful street food events with delicious food from local suppliers, drinks, DJs, and circus performers.

They feature food by some of the region's most inspiring chefs as well as some travelling from far and wide. 

That's all while sipping on a Tiny Rebel Pale Ale, or a cocktail in the Dessert Island Disco area where some of the best local DJs spin tunes.

Summer Feastival is coming to Southampton thanks to local event and festival producer Matt Sanger and Matt the Hat, the Creative Director of Street Food Circus, who have discussed the idea while working on some of the South's biggest festivals. 

Matt Sanger said: "When I’ve walked over the Itchen Bridge, I have looked at this space and imagined what it could be transformed into many times. And now, this event is happening. We will be showcasing incredible food trucks, we’ve got a great DJ line-up, brilliant drinks and I can’t wait to see the circus performers.

Matt Lawton, from Street Food Circus, added: "We hope this is the start of a great collaboration offering something deliciously different. It will be the perfect day out for everyone, families, friends and extended tribes, come hungry!"

Food will be cooked up by Original Fry Up Material, Fire & Flank, Bare Bones Pizza, Poutine Punks, Smokin Griddle, Eat The Bird, Smoking Lobster, Tinkers Grandaughter, Need Street Food, Street Food Spain_no bull, Son of a bun, Oh Crepe, Mint Dosa, Woosabi and more.

For the music fan, Vinilo Records Soundsystem, Pandar, Soul 45s, DJ Junior (Fiesta FM), DJ Boule (Voice FM), Kazzanova, Olly Salter b2b Ryan Harris (Vinyl disco set), Rachel Derby and Little Chief will soundtrack the fun.

Entry is £5 per session for adults, with kids free. Dogs are welcome.
