Looking for Craft / Gift Fairs in North West

[Stormymoonstar]

Hi All

This is my first thread and hope that someone can help me.
I have just started selling Satin bags & purses and have been attending a local Craft fair at Hulme Hall, Port Sunlight.
I'm now looking to do some more fairs, but seem to be having some problems one being not finding any in the local area & the other being told that the fair already has too many stalls selling Bags / Jewellry & Cards.
Can anyone point me in right direction?

Thanks
Stormy

Hi (welcome). I can't help with fairs in your area as I am in the Midlands. I'm sure that someone on here can point you in the right direction. :D

Hi Stormy,

I organise craft fayres in Derbyshire - North Derbyshire, so may be of use to you? I am looking for more stall holders at the moment. I aim to offer very reasonable stall rates. My table fees range from £8 to £16 a table (depending on the cost of my room hire), for a 6ft table. Plus free tea and coffee all day for stall holders! We're a small, friendly, and dedicated group.

Think you may be interested?

looming dates for the taking: Sunday 8th June at Chelmorton in Derbyshire, £10 a stall.

Hi to everybody else

Hi

I am local to you I live just outside Chester.

I book the main of mine with Creative Craft association (google it it should come up). I sell handmade cards and I think she got a waiting list for Jewelry and cards.

Milluemum Crafts (also comes up on google) are local to us also but when I called they said they were fully booked for cards. But mite be a option for you with your bags.

Who the contact for the Hulme Hall Craft Fair, as I mite be interested in doing this one ?
