Information about all our 2025 events, including the 2025 Cardiff Christmas Market, are now available to download here.

| Period 1 | Thursday 13 to Sunday 23 November | 11 days |
| Period 2 | Monday 24 to Sunday 30 November | 7 days |

We do not have a cut-off date for the receipt of applications to take part in the Cardiff Christmas Market. Instead we like to assess applications on a individual basis in order to ensure that we have the best possible mix of arts and crafts from both existing and new exhibitors. However, it may be that by the time you decide to apply we are already full which is why we would recommend that applications are submitted as early as possible.
On receipt of the 2025 Request for Event Application Forms all requested forms will be sent to you in Word format so that they can be completed and returned to us by email, as booking deposits are not required. Requesting our application forms is not a commitment to participate from either party, but they will give you the individual event costs together with more information on the event itself. This should then allow you to decide if you wish to apply to take part.
With Craft*folK you can sell directly to the customer and benefit from promoting your business further or request attending for less than the full duration of the dates shown on the Booking Form. Although it is normal procedure to attend for the full duration or for the full week etc, it may be possible to link you up with another potential participant who also requires reduced participation.
New participants with Craft*folK can test trade their products at the market with our offer of low cost Taster Stalls.
