Axed Jersey seafood festival could return

The Jersey Hospitality Association has said it will work hard to reinstate a seafood festival in Gorey.

The Fete de la Mer had been due to take place at Gorey Pier on 14 May.

But the 2011 event has had to be cancelled because of a lack of funding from sponsors.

The association said events such as the Fete de la Mer, which included traditional sea food, al fresco dining and entertainment, were crucial to the hospitality industry.
