Hi,

We are considering holding a large Christmas Fair in Ascot, Berkshire this year. As this is our first event I would be pleased to hear of any suggestions, advice for organising as well as receiving details of interested exhibitors.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,

Jaime

Oooooh - such a shame I don't live down that way anymore. I would say that Ascot would be a very good place to hold a craft fair. I would make sure to advertise far and wide though. Try villages over towards Henley like Wargrave, Twyford and the ones around Reading too.
You'll have to let us know how it goes - good luck!

Add Wokingham to the list, maybe even Windsor as well.

Just imagine, you could get local "celebrity" Paul Daniels to come and open it!! I rummaged through their stuff at a car boot that Debbie McGee was doing once, but it was all tat.

I'd possibly be interested in exhibiting in Ascot, I don't think it's that far for me to travel. Have a look at my websites and see if you'd be happy to have me on board! Send me a message if you get a confirmed date.

I'd be very interested. Just discovered this site today and looks v helpful. Having difficulty in finding affordable craft fairs that I can exhibit at!

I produce a wide variety of handcrafted metalwork, but I'm not allowed to post my url here yet.

Cheers!

Hello! I'd be interested in exhibiting. I make cards and jewellery, & sell other handmade jewellery. And Captain Tortue childrenswear, if you're interested! Ascot's only just over an hour away, so easily doable.
