Newport Craft and Makers Market

01/02/2025

Wow, Wow and then some..... What an absolutely INCREDIBLE day. Probably one of our personal favourite's in almost 2 years running the Newport Craft and Makers Market.... People sneaking in before we even opened lol...

To hear some of our regular traders and new traders tell me they've SOLD OUT, had their best days ever, got custom orders, did better here than at other LARGE SCALE events and to hear we've surpassed expectations was an absolute high for me today.

I always try to speak to as many traders as possible throughout the day. We've had some feedback today about some layout and "walk through route" improvement suggestions that we'll be looking at for the next event - it's all about making things PERFECT for our traders and visitors.

To our visitors and customers - THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING US and OUR MAKERS. That person behind the table REALLY appreciates you supporting their passion.

Crafters and Makers - THANK YOU FOR PUTTING YOUR TRUST IN US to deliver. Hand on heart - we do everything we can to try and make your day as successful as possible.

We're back on Saturday 1st March for our Mothers Day Gift Special. We'll see you then.

Over and out; Newport Craft and Makers Market signing off.

For those that do not know, the Newport Craft and Makers Market was established on the back of Rock N Soul at it's very beginning in January 2023. We used to travel around to many events and markets as stall holders that were an absolute tragedy to say the least. No organisation, no advertising, poor footfall and an absolute shambles.

I would be at these events and be frustrated all day thinking that we could do this better!

Living in Newport, and with me personally having 15 years experience in marketing and running events, albeit in a different sector, we decided to launch the Newport Craft and Makers Market to do things properly and give Rock N Soul a regular market to sell at. Our first event was May 2023.

Catapult our selves to now - Rock N Soul opened on the High Street in Newport in March 2024 and Newport Craft and Makers Market regularly attracts a sell out of 40 stall holders at each event and absolutely incredible support from visitors who regularly visit us.

We've got a few things up our sleeve for 2025 with the Newport Craft and Makers Market and we're really excited to take you all on our journey with us! Things are cooking in the kitchen, so bear with us for now... The Chef is at work 🙂

In the meantime, here’s a little feature in today's Shropshire Star about the O.G Newport Craft and Makers FIRST EVER STALL HOLDER Rock N Soul Crystals

R E A D A L L A B O U T I T

The Shropshire Star kindly got in touch with us this week to write a follow up piece about Rock N Soul ten months on from their first visit to us, and we couldn’t wait to let them know how our wonderful first ten months have gone; We were so excited to pick up a copy of the paper today and read this lovely piece all about our beautiful shop 💜

If you’d like to read it for yourself, you’ll find the article in the comments, and if you’d like to visit us don’t forget we are now also open on Sundays 10am-2pm.

See you tomorrow ✨

Rock N Soul 🖤

To all those that visited us and braved the horrible weather we've had today along with our amazing stall holders thank you for supporting our event. Considering how awful the weather was, we've had a good steady flow throughout the whole day. Understandably a few cancellations in the morning really put us to the test from a logistics point of view, but all was handled with perfection... (If we say so ourselves)

On behalf of us all at Newport Craft and Makers Market HQ, thank you for supporting our events. We've really become a great place with an amazing reputation in Shropshire and beyond.

For now; over and out - Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to every single person that has passed through our doors and of course the great stall holders we've had the pleasure of hosting.

We'll be seeing you when we return in 2025 on Saturday 1st Feb.

BTW, if anyone finds some of our yellow signs in and around Newport, please kindly let us know.. They appear to have been taken by the wind ;-) haha.
