The Brocante is the latest confirmed event to take place in Grantham Market Place following its revamp, which brought a reimagining by the council of the type of events that could take place there.

Coun Stokes added: “This market and its associated events will add colour and entertainment – and also makes life entertaining for all the nationalities who call South Kesteven their home.”
