NEXT MARKET FEBRUARY 2025

Bring only quality preloved, recycled, upcycled and repurposed handmade, homemade creativity. This is a community event and not suitable for big brand name professional market traders. If you are unsure about whether you will be welcome, email me.

Examples

  • ReCycled - Preloved, second hand goods of quality. Things you have fixed like tools and furniture.

  • UpCycled & RePurposed - Interesting things that you have made from broken or discarded junk, ornaments, cards, clothes, jewellery, furniture, accessories. Car tyres made into wallets, an old ironing board turned into a side table, jeans turned into rugs or totebags

  • Homemade & Handmade - soap, candles, cleaning products, paper flowers, carved wooden spoons.

The spirit of the market is to avoid anything new, packaged and single use.

Running concurrently to the market is a workshop series showing people how to make interesting things.

Terms & Conditions

What You need to know

We want to keep this cheap and assessable, so we need to keep admin low and trust people to do the right thing.

Please read the information provided.

  • Sites are roughly 2.4m x 4m long or 3 x 4m if you want a marquee.  

  • Card table sized sites also available

  • We will provide a full-length mirror and we do have a few trestle tables available (first in).

  • There is on-site parking.

  • If it rains we get wet

  • NO FOOD OR DRINK CAN BE SOLD – it requires permits and is too complicated.

IMPORTANT GROUND RULES

  • If you want to be next to someone arrive together.

  • No cars can be moved on or off site between 3.45 – 8.30pm (ish) if there are lots of people still around it’s too dangerous. If you need to move between those times park on the street.

  • Marquees are only permitted if they have good weights (15-20kgs) on all legs. If it’s windy they can’t go up. It’s tarmac so you can’t peg into the ground.

  • Stallholders who don’t follow the rules will be asked to leave and not invited back.
