The artisan market is located in The Swan Courtyard, just across from the Co-Op on Whalley Road and will be open to the public 10am – 4pm with an afterparty held within The Salvage House which now serves food.

To entertain shoppers on the day, there will be live music performed by Lois Elizabeth as well as laid back beats from DJ Bobby Rushton.
