We are delighted to be back at The Shoreham Centre for the Easter Makers Fair. This is always a popular event with the local residents who look forward to visiting each and every year.

We take over both halls at Easter, allowing for even more trading opportunities.

We invite high-quality and original makers, artists, designers, small batch producers & small businesses to apply. We also welcome applications from outside the Sussex area that would like to showcase with us at a new location, whether you’ve traded with us in the past or if you’re new to Paper Daisy!

If you’re passionate about your work and interested in taking part in a high-quality, curated event, we’d love to hear from you.

Fancy holding a workshop? The stage is available all day for workshops. Priced at just £38 for half of the stage - you’ll be able to fit at least 8 people around two x 6ft tables ready to teach your craft. (chairs & tables are provided).

Our Easter Makers Fair is so much more than a typical Craft Fair! This event is carefully curated to ensure there is a high-standard of exhibitors - which our visitors come to know and expect when they visit a Paper Daisy Makers Fair. Plus, with added attractions for a fun day out for the whole family whether that’s from seasonal workshops, children’s activities, face painting and even live performances.

Children’s workshop area will be located outside the main hall in gazebos (weather permitting).
