Whiteley Village is an open air shopping centre. See the Whiteley Craft Market page for more about the venue. Our regular craft markets here have been very successful over the past few years. The Lifestyle and Food Festivals will be equally heavily advertised to attract customers who want to buy things they can't find on sale in the high street. Publicity will emphasise that this is a chance to buy speciality food and drink products as well as quality items to enhance the home and leisure time. Although we like to make our events entertaining and fun for customers, we also like to encourage them to come prepared to buy!

The Lifestyle and Food Festival is open to food exhibitors selling everything from jams and honey, to pickles and pasties and to craftspeople and small businesses with quality products suitable for the home etc. All products must be suitable for the venue and of appropriate quality. Most food products will not be "to eat now" as we must not compete with the cafes and in-house caterers at the centre. Artwork, pottery, homewares, etc. will all be welcome.

So, if you sell lovely food or quality items for the home or leisure and you'd like to offer them to a targeted audience at this event, please complete the application form or contact us for more information.

Covered stalls (approx. 2.5m wide and 2m deep) are provided and these are erected for you by our staff. See the Whiteley Craft Market page for details. Double stands are available and it may be possible to use your own stall/marquee/gazebo by special arrangement.

All applications must be approved by the Whiteley Village management so please give full details of all your products on your application forms.
