Together with competitions, prizes, requests, and giveaways, this is a great place to drop into after you’ve been in the Winter Wonderland, or as a stop off to meet up with friends as you wander around the various zones of the festival.
There is also a great little bar in there, and a cafe selling hot drinks, cakes, paninis etc.
If you want to see them live, their running order goes like this:

FOOD VILLAGES
FOOD VILLAGES
We have three main food villages (each with a bar) dotted around the festival:
One on Main Street opposite the Fun-Fair,
One at the far end of main Street in the Trade Village,
One by the Chill Stage over by the Main Arena.
Supplementing these are the Stockman’s Bar & Restaurant, a little oasis of calm, opposite the back end of Wye Hall, perfect for a more relaxed ‘sit-down’ meal, and Food For Thought Cafe in the corner of Severn Stage Hall.
There are also food outlets on the Expo Plaza (in the Trade Village, between Avon & Wye Halls), as well as a cafe, bar, and German Sausage Stall in The Hub/Winter Wonderland.
