Watershed Independent Festive Market

Watershed is hosting its first ever Independent Festive Market on Saturday 5 December, from 10:00 to 16:00. It's a new addition to the calendar, run by local creatives and makers on the Harbourside, and it brings together a curated group of independent businesses and talented local makers in one room.

The focus is on unique, ethical and sustainable gifts that you won't find on the high street. Rather than a few random stalls, it's pitched as a one-stop shop for locally created gifts and decorations, so you can tick off a good chunk of your list in one go. It's also described as a festive family day out, so it works as well for a slow Saturday morning with the kids as it does for a proper shopping mission.

It's held in the Waterside Events Spaces at Watershed, which is indoors and right next to the Café & Bar, so you're not battling the December weather while you browse. If you're a maker yourself, there's a stallholder fee of £30 for one trestle table. The market runs from 10:00 until 16:00 on Saturday 5 December, in the Waterside Events Spaces at Watershed, Bristol.
