CATERING firms in Hampshire are invited to set up stalls at an arts festival in Southampton next month.

Businesses across the county are invited to set up food concession stands at the city’s Guildhall Square for Nuffield Theatre’s Art at the Heart festival, which takes place from August 1 to 17.

A precursor to the opening of the new arts complex in 2016 the summer festival, run in partnership with a number of city centre organisations, will see theatre, film, music, visual art and dance performed in the city centre.

Art at the Heart celebrates the 50th anniversaries of both Nuffield and the City of Southampton and will take place at Nuffield’s unique pop-up venue, Nuffield Playing Field, located in Guildhall Square at the heart of Southampton’s Cultural Quarter.
