Small businesses. Thoughtful gifts. Our community.

Make a day of it

Find something special.
Share something lovely.

There’s something lovely about buying a gift from the person who made it. We’re bringing local traders together for a Christmas market full of little discoveries — and a good excuse to meet up with friends and neighbours.

Gifts with a little more heart

Find a thoughtful surprise for someone you love. Browse the stalls, hear the stories behind the products and pick up something a little different.

Come for a browse. Stay for a treat.

A delicious cake, a little festive indulgence or simply time for a catch-up. Leave room for the small pleasures that make Christmas feel like Christmas.

Keep the Christmas cheer local

Every small purchase means something to a local business. Meet the people behind the stalls and help make this a lovely day for our community.

We’re putting the finishing touches to the trader line-up. Check back for stall announcements and the latest event details.

Good people. Lovely things.

Meet the traders

A taste of who’s joining us this Christmas. Meet the people behind the stalls, discover their lovely things and make a little shopping list of your own.
