Ben & Jerry’s Festival

The Ben and Jerry’s Festival is one of my favourite annual events and I always make sure I book out my diary as soon as the dates are announced! My friends from across the country all reunite for this special day of all you can eat ice cream and festivities!
The location is great, although there is a distinct lack of shelter from the elements (this year the sun was melting us all!!).
The best thing about the festival, other than all the free icecream obviously, is that the whole thing promotes eco-​friendly and green habits — a really great message in my opinion.

I have been going to the Ben and Jerry’s Sundae which is held on Clapham Common every July. since the first event.
It‘s a brilliant day out for everyone– kids included. You can taste every one of the B&J flavours and eat as much as you like. There are lots of activities for kids, and the live bands line up gets better every year. There are also food outlets– not the usual rubbish but quality food like gourmet pies, burgers, vegetarian food and italian food. I will be returning next year.

I went to the Ben & Jerry’s festival this year. It is a festival of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, and runs over a weekend. It was very well set up, with a huge stage where bands played throughout the weekend, heaps of food and drink stalls, the Pims bus (with a line 10 times the lenght of the bus) a huge slide that children and adults alike slid down repeatedly, and of course numerous stalls of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream. It was fantastic to taste all the different flavours (and they were all there) and to add a bit of fun to the day, there were games to play to get a few freebies (magnet fishing, thumb wars, paint the gingerbread horse — and then eat it). You just have to watch out for tummy aches and brain freezes, as there is no way to stop eating this amazing icecream, unless your jeans wont hold you in anymore. Take a picnic rug to relax until you’re ready for 10ths!
