Living Crafts 2027: Exhibit with us

Deadline: Monday 30 November 2026
Who it’s for: designer-makers, including jewellers, who make all their own work
Organiser: Living Crafts

Living Crafts, one of the UK’s longest-running craft festivals, is inviting makers to apply to exhibit at Hatfield Park in May 2027.

Living Crafts has championed independent British craft and design since 1974. The 2027 festival takes place from 6 to 9 May in the grounds of Hatfield House, Hertfordshire. Every piece must be made by the exhibitor, so imported or commercially manufactured work isn’t accepted.

Disciplines include jewellery, metalwork, ceramics, glass, textiles, woodwork, leatherwork and more. Stands range from pavilion spaces and shell schemes to exhibitors’ own gazebos. Makers who have been trading for less than two years may be eligible for discounts in selected areas.

How to apply: complete the craft exhibitor application form and risk assessment on the Living Crafts website. There is a separate form for emerging designers.
