Yorkshire's foodie capital is hosting Meadowfest, a day-long music festival this year.
Almost 3000 festival-goers flocked to Malton last year for the musical celebrations, and this year is expected to journey across Yorkshire to the festival.
Taking place on Saturday 30 July 2022, indie rock band, The Feeling, will headline the event.

Taking to the stage to perform fan favourites such as Fill My Little World and Never Be Lonely, as well as music from their brand-new album, Loss. Hope. Love, which is due for release in May 2022, The Feeling expects to draw crowds from near and far to the day festival after frontman Dan Gillespie joined the West End.
The band has been on a hiatus since 2016 but following on from the success of his hit musical Everyone’s Talking About Jamie in the West End, frontman Dan Gillespie Sells found himself inspired to write again for the quintet during lockdown in 2020.
Meadowfest will be one of the band’s first appearances performing their new work.

Elsewhere in the day, festival-goers will have the chance to watch Malton Meadowfest favourites' HUGE and Hyde Family Jam perform, with support from Alistair Griffin and New York Brass Band.
Those who have previously revelled at the music festival will be delighted to also hear of the return of Flat Cap Carnival on the Hay Bale Stage, with additional acts likeGeorge Rowell, Maggie Wakeling, Nick Rooke, Simon Snaize and many more expected to perform in July.
The complete line-up will be announced later this year.

Malton is nationally known for its food and drink options, and so this festival will continue to demonstrate the flavours that give the town the status "a foodie's Glastonbury".
As well as Meadowfest, Malton is set to host multiple food festivals throughout the year.
This year, expect a huge array of unique stalls with tasty treats and gorgeous gifts, celebrity chef talks and demonstrations, live music and fun for all the family. The exact line-up is yet to be announced, but across the six day event, visitors can expect only the best of home-grown goods to be in attendance.
The 2021 event was the first three-day Food Lovers Festival since Malton’s festival beginnings over a decade ago. Both 2022 events will take place over three days thanks to the support that last year’s festival received.
Silver's Deli is opening up a sister shop, and this time it's about everything baked.
We all know and love Silver's Deli for their stacked subs and breakfast sandwiches that could cure any hangover no matter how severe.
They're so good, that they even bagged the coveted Uber Eats Restaurant of the Year Award last year.
And rightly so, because Silver's is absolutely class.
And it seems there's just no stopping Silver's, as they've just announced that they'll be opening a sister shop named Silver's Bakehouse serving up everything, yep you guessed it, baked.
It'll also be in Farsley where the original Silver's is, and they're labelling the new venture as 'your neighbourhood bake shop'.
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, Silver's Deli said: "Well it’s happening. I said no more shops, but it’s kinda necessary, and I just love all things baked.
"There’s waaaaaaaaay too many details to share on this right now, but go give our sister shop @silvers_bakehouse a new follow and hold on tight. This is gonna be fun as fuck."

Customers can expect a wider range of Silver's goodies that they're unable to whip up in the current space. From soft amaretti biscuits and their famous cookies to sausage rolls and brownies that the team have been working on for 12 months.
We're in no doubt that this venture is going to be absolutely brilliant, and you best believe we'll be first in line to try one of those brownies.
Silver's Bakehouse will be located on Town Street in Farsley and is expected to open this May.

This architectural conversion has taken five years to complete and there's been no expense spared, the pulpit and pews have even been kept to really keep that churchy vibe.
Here's what the listing says: "Welcome to The Old Methodist Church, originally built in 1846 and beautifully transformed over the past five years into a truly exceptional home.
"This remarkable conversion seamlessly blends contemporary living with the building’s historic charm, creating a residence that is both striking and deeply characterful.

"Every detail has been tastefully and skilfully executed, carefully preserving original features while introducing modern design and comfort. The stained glass windows, original pulpit and pews remain as stunning focal points — a real marvel and a tribute to the building’s heritage."
