Thousands of visitors flock to the annual event to try the vast selection of cuisine, offered by traders from across the North East.

Those who attend will be able to enjoy street food from a variety of cuisines, such as Italian, Greek, and Indian, to Thai, Armenian, and Sicilian dishes.

There will be other kinds of businesses in attendance, selling a mixture of goods including plants, homeware, and pet products.

Coun Elizabeth Scott, Durham County Council’s member for economy and partnerships, said: "With just over a month to go, we’re excited to reveal the highly anticipated list of traders who will be selling delicious food and quality goods at Seaham Food Festival this year. We are always so proud of our independent traders and the excellent dishes and goods they produce.
