Sell Your Work at the Most Respected Contemporary Craft Fairs in the North!

The Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fairs (GNCCF) are nationally renowned as the premier selling events for contemporary craft in the North of England.

In addition to our flagship GNCCF Manchester, we’re thrilled to announce a brand-new summer event in the vibrant city of Newcastle

•          GNCCF Newcastle: Taking place at Northumbria University from 20–22 June; featuring c140 makers exhibiting in white exhibition stands

•          GNCCF Manchester: Returning to the iconic Victoria Baths for its 18th edition from 16–19 October, and featuring over 150 exhibitors, this much-loved event remains a highlight of the UK craft calendar, attracting a loyal and enthusiastic audience of buyers and collectors year after year. Whilst mainly white shell scheme exhibition stands, there are also affordable table-top options for new makers on the upstairs balcony.

 

•          GNCCFonline Gift Edition: Held on 29–30 November, this affordable and accessible online event allows you to showcase your work under the highly respected GNCCF brand without the added costs of in-person fairs. Promoted extensively to our mailing list and social media followers, it’s perfect for reaching craft-savvy buyers shopping for unique Christmas gifts. It is an ideal platform for emerging makers or those unable to attend physical events and it’s an invaluable follow-up opportunity for makers who have exhibited at GNCCF Newcastle or GNCCF Manchester, prompting additional sales and converting interest from the fairs into purchases.

 

Exhibitors for all our events are selected for their excellence by a panel of craft experts, based on their submitted images.

We take no commission on sales.

Great Northern Events is a not-for-profit organisation and is supported by Arts Council England with public funding from the National Lottery.
