The Alternative Market is an opportunity for young people (13-29) to try out a trading experience at a festival market. You can take part whether you already have some experience or have never considered it but would like to have a go.
What kind of stall could I run?
Arts, Books, Crafts and Stationary, Fashion, Food and Drink, Games, Illustration and Design, Jewellery, Memorabilia, Photography, Records, Toiletries, Toys, Vintage /retro
Other – use your imagination!
How much are stalls?
That depends on the market and your age. Get in touch to find out more.
Performers – book a slot
The Alternative Market also provides an opportunity for local performers and community groups to showcase their unique skills and talents to a local audience on stage.
This could be:
Comedy, Dance, Drama, Music.....
Demonstration/Workshop runners
Would you like to do a demonstration or run a workshop?
You could run a workshop encouraging people to be creative whilst at the same time promoting your own products. We will cover the cost of the resources that members of the public use. If you don’t have all the equipment, get in touch because we might already have it.
We have lots of markets running throughout the year. Get in touch to find out more and join our Facebook group Kirklees Alternative Market for information on opportunities available plus a place to share ideas with other likeminded people.
If you would like to book a stall or be considered to perform or run a workshop or demonstration zone please email alternative@kirklees.gov.uk
