Hopeful and Glorious Makers Market @ The Festival of Making 2025
Saturday 5th July 2025
Blackburn Cathedral
The National Festival of Making will return to Blackburn on Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th 2025. This joyous celebration of creativity regularly attracts crowds of over 40,000 across the weekend for a vibrant programme of art, science, digital and craft experiences attracting significant national media attention.
Once again, the Makers Market will be key feature of the Festival with a wide range of stalls showing and selling work by fabulous artists, designers and makers.
This year’s marketplace will take place on Saturday 5th July 2025 at Blackburn Cathedral.
The Makers Market is a collaboration between Festival producers, Festival of Making CIC and guest curators, Hopeful and Glorious to celebrate and spotlight art, craft and design from across the region. Hopeful and Glorious will curate a showcase of around 50 artists, makers and designers who have been selected for the quality and originality of their work.
The Makers Market will provide a platform for creatives to exhibit and sell. It’s an opportunity for makers to share and shout about their creativity and industry. Please note the Marketplace is on the Saturday 5th only allowing you a full day to look around and engage in the wider festival.
There will not be any food stalls within the Makers Market as all food products will have a designated area elsewhere in the town centre.
