PEOPLE flocked to the Conwy Honey Fair on Tuesday (September 13), as it returned to the town centre’s streets after a three-year break due to Covid-19.
The Honey Fair dates back more than 700 years, to the Royal Charter of King Edward I, who first conquered Wales.
Having endured a three-year pause due to the pandemic, the Fair returned bigger than ever with a record 30 honey stalls selling their produce, with several of these new beekeepers.
With around 35 other stalls selling local produce, arts and crafts, huge crowds soaked up the good weather at the day event.
Organiser Peter McFadden of the Conwy Beekeepers said: “Yesterday's Conwy Honey Fair was a great success.
“We had crowds of visitors all day.
“Thanks to the town traders and residents for their support.
The Honey Fair is a unique privilege for us, are proud of the royal connection and keep the event true to its roots.”
