Craft Candy Fairs are a place where artists and makers can sell their products in a friendly and supportive environment where high quality and creativity is our biggest priority. Our fairs are a contemporary take on the Craft scene in Sheffield and are a showcase for the best craft this great city of ours has to offer. We want to maintain a high quality of work at our fairs and will access applications on this basis.

  1. This event is organised by Craft Candy.
  2. Craft Candy support sellers making handcrafted items. We do not accept bought in items or supplies. Photography that has been taken by you or prints of original artwork created by you are absolutely fine. We stick to these rules so if we find that this rule has been broken then we will have to ask you to leave the fair and forgo any payments you have made.
  3. Sending in an application form does not guarantee you a place, we have to ensure a wide range of crafts are represented at the fair. Images supplied by you during the application process will help Craft Candy determine the suitability of your work for the fair, you can also link to a website which features your work.
  4. The venue is the Millennium Galleries on Arundel Gate. Stalls will be located in both the Long Gallery and Avenue.
  5. We want this event to be really great and ask stallholders to make every effort to ensure their stalls are well presented and visually exciting.
  6. If you book then no longer wish to have a stall then stall fee is non refundable unless we are able to get a replacement. If we do then you will receive a full refund within 2-3 days after the fair. Any cancellations made 1 month or less before the event will not be refunded.
  7. In the unlikely event that the fair has to be cancelled or the venue unavailable owing to circumstances beyond our control, we will try to arrange another date in the near future or refund your money in full.
  8. Regular stalls are 2.5’ by 6’. We also offer 'start up stalls' which are half the size of a regular stall, these are especially for new businesses or for those who are new to craft fairs. Please note that these stalls are half a table so you will need to bear this in mind when preparing any decoration or table cloth for the stall. Each stall will be provided with at least one chair, two if possible.
  9. Health & Safety: Please do not obstruct walkways with displays or stock, there will be sufficient room between stalls to display items but please do no obstruct areas which might cause danger to the general public. If we hurt people then they can’t buy anything!
  10. The legal bit: All stallholders are responsible for their own items.
    It is the stallholders responsibility to arrange appropriate insurance to cover all risks associated with their participation in the fair. Craft Candy accept no liability for damage to, or loss of, work or other equipment on display or in transit, or for damage caused to the public through stallholders negligence or disregard of heath and safety guidelines.
  11. We don’t allow subletting of stalls, please submit a joint application if you wish to share your stall with someone else. If you submit an application by yourself and then find you can’t fill the stall and wish to share with someone then contact us and we’ll have a chat about it.
  12. Stallholders can have access to the building from 8:30am on the day of the event. Please set up your stall and have it ready for the public at least 10 minutes before the start of the fair. The fair will finish at 4pm and stallholders can pack up anytime after that. We have to vacate the building by 5pm.
