Trader’s Frequently Asked Questions
What time can I access the event to set up?
Access will be available from 07:00 on Sunday 3 August 2025 for setting up your stall. Please ensure your stall is ready by 09:00.
Can I hire equipment from you?
We are only able to provide trestle tables for the pitches. All other equipment should be provided by the trader. Every trader must have a gazebo with a back and weights. Please see the T&C’s for further information.
What size is my pitch?
We’re working on the assumption that most gazebos will be 12ft/3m x 12ft/3m in size, with tables being around 6ft/1.8m. Any larger pitches may incur additional cost.
What time can I pack up my stall?
You will not be able to pack up your stall until the event finishes at 16:00. We expect all traders to be on their stall and trading until this time.
What is the cost of a pitch?
There are different pitch types available:
Trader - Art & Craft, £95, High Street
Trader - Food & Drink, £95, High Street
Caterer - Food, £160, Festival Field
Caterer - Drink, £160, Festival Field
Charity, £60, High Street or Festival Field
How do I know if I’ve secured a pitch at 2025?
If you have been successful, we will be in touch with you by the early May 2025 at the latest. If unsuccessful you will be placed on a reserve list.
Will I have access to electricity?
Pitches do not come with electrical hook-ups as standard. Please ensure you have an alternative power source (battery) for the duration of the event. If you require electricity, you will need to let us know what your stall type is, what the power is for and what power you require. We will prioritise catering pitches that require power for items such as refrigeration. These spaces are limited as we rely on the kindness of residents and business. There may be a discretionary charge for supplying this power.
Power on the Festival Field will be available for caterers, the charge for this is £25 per 5A supply. See registration form
Can I park next to my pitch?
There is no parking available on the High Street. You may unload and load your vehicle for set up, but then you are required to move your vehicle to the dedicated parking spaces. There will be plenty of volunteers on the day to sign-post you to these fields.
How do I pay for my trader space?
You will be invoiced. The invoice payable within 14 days.
Please note: If payment is not received the organisers will assume you no longer wish to trade and the pitch will be offered to an applicant on the waiting list.
