The office will be open from 3pm on Friday 13th June. and until then all enquiries with regard to tickets and concert information must be made to Linda.

Market Stalls

Please note that as the festival is held in the town centre streets we rely on the local traders for our snacks and meals and therefore do not accept applications from Caterers or Hot Dog/Burger vendors. We also have an Ice Cream vendor who has been with us for a great number of years, consequently further applications from Ice Cream sellers will not be accepted.

The festival is famous for its Craft and Charity Markets. Back in the early 80's the number of stall holders involved were less than 20, all that has now changed. The festival hosts in the region of 150 Craft and Charity Stall holders at various locations in the town centre for either the whole weekend or for the Sunday only. The range of goods for sale is enormous and is sure to satisfy all tastes.

For the whole weekend the sites are based on the following areas - The Allendale Centre frontage and the Wimborne Conservative Club car park.
The Sunday only Festival Market takes over the whole of the Square and High Street areas in addition to a small section of the Minster Green. The event these days is one of the largest markets of its kind in the country connected with a folk festival and there is no charge for our visitors.

On Saturday 14th June, running concurrently, the Minster will hold its Annual Fair. This event is held on the green fronting the Church and supports thirteen local charities The annual fair is an additional attraction for visitors.
