Free market with local makers, artists and artisans selling their goods at Belfast Castle.
Belfast Castle is hosting an Artisan market on Saturday 28 November, from 11am to 4pm. It's a day for local makers, artists and artisans to set up and sell their work, so you'll find a range of handmade goods from across the city and beyond rather than a single type of craft. If you've been looking for something specific from a local maker, or just want to see what's being made around here, it's a good place to start.
The market brings together a mix of people: makers who work with their hands, artists with their own pieces on display, and artisans selling their goods. Because it's a gathering of different stalls, the variety changes from one table to the next, and you'll get to buy directly from the people who actually made what you're looking at. It's a straightforward setup — a collection of local talent in one room, with plenty of different things to browse through.

It's a one-day event, so it's worth keeping the date in mind if you're planning to go. The market also ran on Sunday 18 October, so this is the next time it's on. It's held at Belfast Castle, which puts it up on the hill with the views over the city, and it runs from 11am to 4pm, giving you a full window to wander through without having to rush. Entrance is free, so you can just turn up and have a look around. If you're after something handmade from a local maker, that's where you'll find it.
