Around 25,000 turned out to the first two days of the three-day event, which concluded today, and Lowther Trust chairman Tim Lince said: "It has gone wonderfully well. The traders have said they have never known anything like it."
The Food Festival, which also included a craft fair and fairground rides, followed an Ice Cream Festival at the Gardens in July, which also attracted a bumper attendance.
