Following a hugely successful run of dates last year, our popular arts and craft market returns to Hamilton town centre on the last Saturday of each month alongside supporting events such as the Hamilton Easter Gala and the Light Switch on.

Our market is proud to host a high percentage of vendors from the local area including appearances from our town centre businesses. We are also delighted to return to our indoor location for the year within the Regent Centre, providing a weatherproof location in addition to our high impact outdoor events.

Last year Hamilton town centre increased its number of visits by over 100k versus 2023, with our events and Hamilton Market contributing an estimated 37k in additional footfall. (Source Place Informatics).

According to our recent survey, visitors to our events spend on average £41 in our town centre businesses, either on the day or returning at a later date to access a product of service. 35% of our event visitors are people who don’t normally visit the town centre, travelling in specifically to attend the market or event.

‘Our events are now a really important part of our community here in Hamilton. We’re providing free to access kids activities such as our crafting and cake decorating, free entertainment at our larger events alongside a great high quality arts & craft market. Whilst, these events don’t solve the challenges, they do provide important economic, cultural and community value.’. Malcolm Thomas-Harley Hamilton Our Town

Hamilton Our Town events would not be possible without the ongoing support from our town centre businesses, sponsors, market vendors. Thank you for your support.
