Market Day will be split over two days in 2018: Friday 26th and Saturday 27th October.
This year will have a greater focus on supporting businesses (our members) and there will be no stallholders on the street.
Market Day special offers
Businesses have been invited to come up with an incredible Market Day ONLY promotion which must be available on 26-27 October only.
We will promote your business and your promotion for free on our new website, our Facebook profile, The Guardian newspaper and on ACE Radio. That’s right, free advertising for your business!

Your Market Day promotion must only be available on the 26th & 27th of October.

Businesses are encouraged to display their promotion item(s) on the footpath on both Friday and Saturday and to add some colour to their display to create a market atmosphere.
