Introduction

A new event for Summer, in the glorious Trades Hall - an iconic venue in the heart of Merchant City. There will be three table sizes on offer at this event due to the layout of these rooms.

19th July 2025. Opening times: 10.30am to 5.00pm

Stall Options

Stalls are available in either a 3’, 6’ or 9’ space. The actual “space” is approx 5’ deep though this may increase due to the shape of the rooms. This means you would be able to be seated behind a table. It is also possible to book a corner site which gives you additional selling frontage (these are limited).

Unless you request no table, a 3’ space will have a 3’ table with chair behind. A 6’ space would a 6’ table with chair behind, and a 9’ space would have a 6’ table with chair behind, plus 3’ of space for browsers, rails, etc.

You must book enough space to fit in everything you need. How you arrange your space is up to you. The aisles need to be certain widths to comply with our licensing requirements so it is not acceptable to encroach on them. No part of your display, including yourself, should be outwith your allotted space (this includes browsers, display stands and seating), so when planning your stall please ensure you book enough space to suit your needs.

Don’t forget you are booking a ‘space’ - you should imagine the possibility that your neighbours on either side might well both have their own display systems.

We no longer require to charge for tables. These are included in the price of this event. You must book them on the application form though - we won’t be able to supply them on the day if you don’t.

Electricity - Due to the historic nature of the building we are not able to guarantee access to power. We recommend using battery powered lights wherever possible.
