Pitches

 

Pitches cost £20 per market.

 

Each trader pitch allows for 1 x trestle table per pitch. If you plan to bring more than one table to the market, you will need to book and pay for two pitches. Multiple pitches will always be placed together.

 

Traders are required to bring a standard 6ft trestle table to the market and use a pop-up market tablecloth on the day. Please be aware tablecloths will only fit this size table.

 

There are no charges to hire a tablecloth. If you need to hire a 6ft trestle table there will be a small hire fee per market. Please select this option at the bottom of the application form.
