Ballymaloe Craft Fair. Part Two next weekend!
After a well attended opening last weekend, the annual Ballymaloe Craft Fair has another two days of browsing and snacking coming up next Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd November.
Again, there will be over 200 exhibitors (not necessarily the same as last weekend) across the two days made up of Irish design, craft and food, the perfect event to support local business and producers and also to get ahead of your Christmas shopping! See the pics below for a hint of what you can expect.
The Ballymaloe Craft Fair is just as much about atmosphere as it is about shopping. A stroll through the stalls is accompanied by festive music, the scent of mulled wine and mead, and the sight of families and friends enjoying time together.
The food offering is a highlight every year, with a careful selection of delicious and warming treats — hot chocolate, baked and savoury delights, and a line-up of interesting and exciting food trucks. All the details here.
