Upcoming Events

One of our favourites kickstarts our Autumn/ Xmas season and it's a belter! Set in the beautiful Barracks if you haven't been to Berwick for a while, book yourself a B&B, come to the beer tent on the Friday night, stock up on goodies and do it all again Saturday night too! Fantastic independent shops, great produce, even better atmosphere and even the odd belly dancer... Friday - Beer tent only, Barracks: Sat: 10am-5pm, Sun: 10am-4pm

What a forward-thinking and incredibly pertinent festival this has turned out to be for our times. All about recycling, reusing, swapping, making, crafting, and foraging with sustainability and, just as important, fun at it's beating heart. Too much to do in a weekend so make a day of it and make sure your creative juices are in overdrive! Sat: 10am-5pm, Sun: 10am-4pm

This gorgeous market town on the coast of Northumberland and home to Hogwarts is an absolute gem and equally this annual and long standing festival is a cracker. With stalls galore featuring amazing local produce, stacks of entertainment and always a great atmosphere, be prepared to come and treat yourself... Sat: 10am-5pm, Sun: 10am-4pm  

This little beauty has gone from strength to strength with locals and visitors making the most of the weekend with great stalls, demos, gin tents and, new to this year, a new Vegan Hall! Sat: 10am-5pm, Sun: 10am-4pm

Three humungous marquees stuffed to the brim with goodies for Xmas from local producers to crafters to gifts perfect for home and garden. Free parking and a tea shop. Need we say more... Thurs - Sun: 10am-4.30pm

Living North's Christmas Fair kicks off the North East's biggest shopping and social event of the season. We'll be in the festive food marquee jostling with brilliant gift ideas and a cracking day out! Pace yourself... Thurs & Fri: 10am-4pm, Sat: 10am-5pm, Sun: 10am-4pm

Part of the Rival Arts stable this is a perfect setting to get some shopping done - all undercover, free car parking and cracking, unusual pressies you won't get on the High Street! Sat & Sun: 10am-4pm

If you're not in the spirit of Xmas by now and wishing good will to all men and ladies (and we mean ALL) then this weekend will change your tune. Durham is festooned with decorations, there's choirs on every corner and a stunning array of local stall holders and artists to tempt you. North, as usual, will be in the Cloisters of the fantabulous Durham Cathedral - cold but happy! Fri: 10am-5pm, Sat: 9am-6pm, Sun: 12noon to 4pm.
