Are you a social enterprise that makes ethical, sustainable, luxury gifts?
Would you like to apply for one of two free stands delivered as part of the Social Economy Work Programme on behalf of the Dept for the Economy.
The Guildhall Craft Fair is an annual event which showcases a wide range of bespoke craft items created by craft designer-makers and artists throughout Ireland. The fair takes place in the historical Guildhall in Derry’s city centre and is renowned for attracting a large number of visitors looking for that special gift or purchase for Christmas.
The fair is well established throughout the craft industry and has become a calendar event within the sector due to the high standard of goods for sale resulting from its strict selection process. It is the event of choice for many makers and artists as no imported or bought in work is allowed at the event, with all of the goods on display being handmade in Ireland.
Friday 13th – Sunday 15th November 2026
ONLY 2 STANDS AVAILABLE
(Stand size 2m x 2m)
