Brighton Festive Makers Fair
Saturday 12 December – Sunday 13 December 2026
Wagner Hall, Brighton, East Sussex(BN1 2RU)
Behind Western Road in the centre of Brighton, the Brighton Festive Makers Fair brings more than 75 independent businesses, from makers and artists to designers, together from the city, the rest of Sussex and further afield for a weekend of Christmas shopping. Stalls are set across Wagner Hall, its stage and the Fig Tree Garden, with original handmade gifts among the ceramics, prints, jewellery, textiles, homewares, clothing, self-care and decorations, and a chance to talk to the people who made them. For a breather, Seashore Bakes runs a pop-up café serving homemade cakes, and the garden bar pours mulled wine and cider. Entry is free, families and dogs are welcome, and the seafront, the Lanes and Churchill Square are all a short walk away.
