Free outdoor market with around 80 local makers selling handmade art, craft, food and drink in Exchange Square.
The Chester Makers Market returns to Exchange Square on Saturday 7 November, from 10:00am to 4:00pm. It's run by The Makers Market, and it pops up in the historic Roman city with around 80 local, independently run stallholders taking over the streets. You'll find handmade art, craft, food and drink, with street food and live music running alongside. The setting is outdoors but mostly covered, flat and wheelchair and pushchair accessible, and the organisers frame it as a chance to support the local community and encourage people to shop locally. You can wander among the makers and discover unique finds while soaking up the atmosphere of a city surrounded by stunning architecture.
It's easy enough to get to: Chester train station is about a 15-minute walk away, and the Chester Northgate bus stop is around six minutes on foot, with cycle racks available nearby. The market sits right in the heart of things, outside the new Chester market and in front of the town hall. Entry is free, so you can just turn up and browse. It runs from 10:00am to 4:00pm, and it's held every first Saturday of the month, so if you can't make this one, there'll be another soon.
