Open call for Festive Market stall holders.
13 Jun 2025
The Hepworth Wakefield is delighted to announce that its popular Festive Market returns this winter, taking place across two weekends (Saturday 22 – Sunday 23 and Saturday 29 – Sunday 30 November 2025). The Festive Market will take place in the event space at Tileyard North, the beautifully refurbished textile mill opposite the gallery.
Open call for stall holders
Applications for the Festive Market are now open and welcomed from emerging and established UK-based independent artists, designers, makers and producers working in ceramics, cosmetics and aromatics, food and drink, gifts for children, homeware, jewellery, plants and floristry, prints, stationery and textiles.
Each weekend will feature family activities in the galleries and learning studios, choirs/brass bands and street food – alongside discounted exhibition entry and a festive offer in our shop and café – to ensure a well-attended, vibrant event. In 2024, we welcomed over 13,000 visitors across the two Festive Market weekends.
A special preview evening will be held on Friday 21 November to coincide with the private view and opening party for our new exhibitions. If you are interested and available to take part in this preview, please indicate so in your application.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Apply now via the CuratorSpace website.
Applications close at midday on Monday 7 July 2025
