Halloween special edition of the Bristol Alternative Market, with alternative clothing, taxidermy, entomology, D&D supplies and vintage items.
Bristol Alternative Market returns to the Exeter Corn Exchange on Saturday 31 October, with this year's edition billed as a Halloween Special. It's the market's annual visit to the city, and the date puts it right on the doorstep of the holiday, so the organisers are leaning into it with a focus on spooky traders.
If you've never come across it, the market is run by Aiden McLean (they/them) and is described as an inclusive, accessible space created by the alternative community for the alternative community. It brings together one-of-a-kind artists, taxidermy and entomology, D&D and TTRPG supplies, and vintage and alternative clothing, all in one room. It's the kind of place that draws nerds, oddities, weirdos, creatives and artisans, and the Halloween theme this time around should sit well with that crowd.
The Exeter edition is billed as the city's own Alternative Market, and it returns every year. It's held right in the city centre, so it's easy to get to on public transport and there's parking close by. It's family-friendly and aimed at art lovers, trade professionals, collectors and exhibition enthusiasts, so it works as a casual wander as much as a proper hunt for something specific.
