Not one to keep all my eggs in on basket, I'm spending 50% of my time this month in Manchester, and trying out a new venue and organiser, as you know I'm a sucker for old buildings so can't wait to see the ornate tiles of this one.

Not as busy as I thought I would be, as my other Manchester based fair applications weren't been successful. but looking at all my other commitments for May I think things have worked out for the best.

Stretford Arts & Crafts Fair

My last market of the month sees me at a new venue in Stretford, with a new organiser.

Not really sure what to expect, but as I'm spending more time in Manchester and Yorkshire I thought why not give it a go, when it popped up in my IG feed, and looking at the building exterior, it's reminiscent of the Victoria Baths in Manchester.
 

Set in the historic Victoria Ballroom of the beautiful Stretford Public Hall, this market celebrates handmade creativity, local makers and independent businesses.

With a wide range of stalls selling handmade unique gifts, crafts and art, and food vendors, it's a wonderful opportunity to discover talented local makers and enjoy a relaxed day in the heart of the community

Stretford Arts & Crafts Fair  will be held at Stretford Public Hall, Chester Road, Stretford, Manchester, M32 0LG

Sunday 31st May 2026 10:00am - 4:00pm
