2025 (Yes, seriously)
I don’t say this with any ego - to be honest I say it with some shock, a blob of disbelief and heaps of thanks….. we are apparently very popular and this means we get lots and lots and lots of applications for pitches and we know some traders like to get booked in nice and early so….
We’ll be opening the books for 2025 in the coming days!
An official announcement will be made!
Thank you all, so much, for everything - what began as a crazy idea has become something of beauty.
With love

A Note from Amber Ankh Events HQ
I had a conversation with someone at the last Fayre in the middle of the day. I was busy, they were popping out.
They informed me of an exchange they were party to at a recent event similar to ours and it has stuck with me.
In 6 years, I've never been so bloody annoyed.
Here is my observation - if you don't like what a trader is selling, or what a trader produces or indeed if you're just not keen on them, that is your opinion and choice.
If you feel the need to speak rudely, unkindly and offensively to that trader, to diminish what they do, to denounce what they make their living selling and to ridicule stock which makes many many people very happy then I have only one response.
You are unwelcome, uninvited and you are unpleasant.
We have championed being a space for all - from Angelic work to Enochian, from Kabbalah to Wiccan - we are only intolerant of one thing - intolerant people!
You will not change that, you will not be allowed to change that!
To our odd, quirky, weird and wonderful friends over the past 6 years - you will always be welcomed at our door, you will always have a home with us!
If you're reading this and don't like what I'm saying.... I stopped caring a long time ago :)
Love

The lovely words from our traders and attendees means the world.
Thank you all.
If you are awaiting a reply from me, it’ll take a few days - I’m tired!
Much love

Did we mention….
We’re proud to be a Dog Friendly Event!
With a dog friendly venue and a dog friendly team you’ll be amazed how much we love dogs! Sometimes we’ve caused the entry line to back up to say a proper “hello” to the pups!
We are having e-mail related issues today - traders for Ely's Spring Pagan and Alternative Fayre 2024 we are trying to get our trader info sent out but it's proving difficult!
If all fails, we'll do facebook messages!
Best

An Update from Amber Ankh HQ
As many of you will know, Amber Ankh Events has been my personal project since we opened for business.
With help from my team, we’ve taken Ely by storm and we have been deeply touched by the years of support. That will not be changing, Ely is our heart and I will remain.
Over the weekend just gone however I saw an old friend for the first time in far to long and we talked as only friends and event organisers can. That’s when it happened. Famous last words….
“I’d love to bring something like this to Norfolk….” Said them.
“You can if you want to…..”
And so it happened.
Allow me to introduce our *drum roll* Divisional Head of Operations for Norfolk (Silly Person who’s agreed to it essentially) Jess!
*pictured here being interviewed by co-ceo Solomon
Don’t rush her, you’ll know soon enough what’s being planned!
The veil has thinned; the night is drawing in,
Honour those who’s footsteps you walk in, those who worked and studied, those who taught and learned.
Those loved are present still, never more so than this eve.
Blessed Samhain to our followers.
“Between the bonfires, lightly tread
And bless the year that lies ahead.
The seasons turn to frost and dew
Before the sun its strength renews.”
Still time to apply....
We have very few spaces left for pitches for 2024 - the online form is here https://forms.gle/Aug8fdULZaj11cEX8
If you sturggle with that, drop us a DM with your pitch size and prefered dates and we'll see what we can do!
Readers - we are pretty much full!

All events will take place at The Maltings, Ely
A moment of musing on - size
We’ve been inundated, absolutely knocked sideways and upside down by the huge response from the Autumn Fayre and on to the Winter Fayre.
With traders and traders and more contacting us; and we wish we could accommodate all of them because frankly you’re all amazing!
The problem is we simply don’t have the space - we cram traders anywhere we can for Fayres, whilst maintaining a comfortable environment for everyone.
We have options -
A) we change venues…. Yeah? That’s not happening whilst the wind still blows and the oceans remain wet!
B ) we hire a marquee for the green outside and add that space… (OK, we are going to look at those logistics for summer and spring)
C) We stack traders like bunk beds….. (no, health and safety says no….)
We are what we are, and will always be,
It’s been five years - join us for the next five, ten and on and on.
Sometimes it's good to look back... before looking forward!

A Note
The past few weeks have been busy - officiating two weddings, a Fayre and more (because don’t forget the Chief Anker works full time!)
That is why for the next two weeks messages will go unanswered, emails will recieve an out of office.
We are resting, focusing on a busy period elsewhere and having evenings with cats and a significant other.
It’s been a blast but it’s time for a rest (just for a few weeks!)
With love, and thanks
M
You wonderful wonderful people!
It was hot but you still came out and supported our event!
Five Years On.... Still going strong!
Thanks everyone!
Please note -
We do love you Reccomending our business - it means we're doing something right.
Please continue to do so!
However we are alas forced to deny the rumours that we have the power to bring your ex back to you, make your hair grow longer or increase the size of anything else frankly.... If we had such magnificent powers surely we'd have monatised it long ago and would be living it large in the South of France?!
We’re thinking about how to say ”Hello” to all our much loved regulars and our soon to be much loved newcomers destined to become regulars….
We’re thinking we might just book ourselves some of the finest folk musicians within Ely to serenade people arriving at our front door!
Wouldn’t that be lovely?!
Apologies
Unfortunately our event - A Night of Mediumship with Garry Edwards has been cancelled - all ticket holders will receive their refund via the chosen vendor.
Unfortunately due to a technical issue the event listing has been deleted.
We plan to put a new date in place in the near future
Anger, sorrow, frustration.
An attack on one of our own - dedicated and kind people.
Ely people, if you’ve seen anything around 6pm, please contact the authorities.
Yes we were vandalised tonight. We're OK but there is a heck of a lot of damage. If anyone saw anything around 6pm please call the police quoting incident number 373.
Our Fayres are one of the 52 things to do!
Not only are we, like many, pleased to see the back of January, but we are also pleased to announce our 2023 Visit Ely Guide has arrived here at Oliver Cromwell’s House. Beautifully written by our team, our gorgeous little book is jam-packed full of places to see and things to do this year.
One of our favourites is on pages 20 and 21 is ’52 things to do’ in Ely and beyond. So, there is not excuse not to enjoy Ely as much as we do! We have literally planned something for you to do every week of the year!
So, without further ado, pop in and collect a copy, or download from our website www.visitely.org.uk
