A Very Blackpool Christmas: Bring some joy and gladness back to Christmas shopping at Blackpool Creative Market
Following the success of last year’s event, Blackpool Winter Gardens Trust is hosting Blackpool Creative Christmas Market on Saturday 29 November 2025, bringing over 50 local independent traders together under one roof.
Christmas is a time for giving, but that shouldn’t mean we’re forced into spending a fortune on mass-produced goods that line the pockets of big corporations. One or two thoughtful gifts can mean so much to our loved ones, but choosing them can take up valuable time in what often is the busiest time of the year for so many of us.
So this Christmas season, Blackpool Creative Market is taking the stress out of buying gifts for your loved one by bringing together over 50 local independent traders under one roof for Blackpool’s biggest Christmas market.
With live music and craft workshops to take part in too, it promises to bring joy and gladness back into the Christmas shopping experience.
On Saturday 29 November the Winter Gardens Pavilion will be transformed into a festive marketplace with stalls selling handmade crafts, original artwork, artisan jewellery and homeware and so much more. The stalls are hosted by Blackpool artists and makers selling their unique products, meaning you’ll be supporting local independent traders and purchasing sustainable gifts that are good for the planet and good for your pocket too.
This is the fourth annual Blackpool Christmas Creative Market hosted by the Winter Gardens Trust, and started by Blackpool’s High Street Heritage Action Zone project which aims to use Blackpool’s high street heritage as a catalyst for bringing new and diverse uses to the town centre.
Great gifts from local artists and makers
Many artists will be selling their work at the Christmas Creative Market, including Robin Ross, a highly acclaimed local artist. Hot off the back of their feature at Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair, we have Sana with digital and traditional art that aims to raise awareness about invisible illnesses, and welcoming back Sarah Pugsley of Coxyart with prints inspired by Fylde Coast landmarks that make a perfect gift for anyone who’s rightly proud of our vibrant hometown.
There will be tonnes of inspiration for stocking fillers for children, with traders including Josh Ford (aka The Bearded Sewist) selling their handmade plushies, Hex Gregson of Hexagram Designs with their Studio Ghibli inspired crocheted characters and Emily Moore of Foxhat who will have cute stickers and accessories which are sure to put a big smile on your face.
There will also be a variety of ceramics, 3D printed crafts, jewellery, toiletries, candles, specialist teas, beauty products, one of a kind homewares and much more. Textile lovers can discover everything from hand-knitted baby clothes, hair accessories, tote bags and soft furnishings such as cushions and blankets.
More than just stalls
As if our fantastic range of stalls wasn’t enough, we have also invited two more local creatives to host sustainability-themed workshops – inviting visitors to drop in and try their hand at making something christmassy themselves.
