Winter Is Coming – Shop Local This Festive Season

Celebrate the rich diversity of small independent businesses in Northern Ireland this Christmas and shop local during the festive season to keep vitality in the economic heart of our community.

The creative folks from Frock Fairs NI have made this easy to do with three fabulous lifestyle shopping events which showcase unique designer makers, artists and vintage sellers from all over the province. Taking place in and around Belfast, from late November to mid December, each event will feature an extravaganza of unique artisan & handcrafted gifts, vintage treasures & collectables, delicious edible goodies and a whole lot of nostalgia and fun.
Now in their 8th year of delighting customers from all over the country, and having just passed the milestone of their 72nd event, Frock Fairs NI know a thing or two about selecting inspirational creative talent and blending it with interesting vintage finds to create Ireland’s longest-running alternative shopping experience, so you can expect great things from this year end finale of Christmas fairs.

The Wonderful Winter Vintage & Handmade Fair will take place from 12 to 5pm on Sunday 29th November 2015 at Malone House, Barnett Demesne, Belfast.  Admission costs only £3 for adults, and children go free.

The Very Christmassy Vintage & Handmade Fair will take place from 11am to 5pm on Saturday 5th December at St Patrick’s Pastoral Centre, Chapel Hill, Lisburn and thanks to the kind sponsorship of Lisburn City Centre Management this event will be free admission.
