If you enjoy a dram of whisky, then you'll be glad to know that the midlands biggest whisky festival is coming to Leicester later this year - featuring more than 250 from around the world.

Leicester Dram Fest is being organised by 23 Wine and Whiskey, and will build on the success of Leicester Whisky Festival, which they held last year.

This year's event will take place at The Grand Hotel, close to the 23 Wine and Whiskey store in Granby Street, and promises to be bigger and better than last year.
