Fareham gets festive with pop-up Christmas craft fair
The fair will feature local traders selling handmade goods, including jewellery, cakes, and textiles
A new craft fair is coming to Fareham in time for the festive season, with independent local businesses selling a range of goods, from jewellery to cakes.
Flo Circle holds a monthly craft fair in Portchester and Gosport, but is hosting a pop-up Christmas fair in Fareham town centre from Saturday November 7.
“The pop-up is going to be in the run up to Christmas, so we'll have things like Christmas decorations from independent local traders,” said Flo Circle creator, Helen Ruff.
“We're going to have up to 14 traders each day, and we're going to have workshops as well, like needle felting, making Christmas cards and jewellery making.
“We've got handmade things like macrame products, crochet, like fabric, textiles, bakers, skincare, bath products and jewellery. There's someone who sells mead, so they'll be doing like hot mead as well as it's Christmas, as well as a lady who does like eco cocktails in cans. We’ll have a bit of everything.”
The market will be held inside a unit on Osborne Square in Fareham Town Centre, meaning it won’t be affected by the winter weather. It will open every weekend in the run up to Christmas, starting on November 7.
