It is the first event of its kind, organised by Vote.je, and comes ahead of next month's hustings. A full schedule of election debates before an audience is taking place 5 May- 3 June, with dates and locations expected to be announced soon.
A free shuttle bus will be running from Liberation Station to take people to Wellington Hill for the Candidate Fayre. Bus times can be found on Vote.je.
Jenny O’Brien, Head of Digital and Public Engagement at the States Greffe, said; “We’re really excited about bringing together candidates and voters in this way for the first time.
"We hope it will provide the opportunity for meaningful 1-2-1 conversations that will help voters when deciding who they are most aligned with when it comes to Election Day on Sunday 7 June."
