Win a pair of tickets to the Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair at Upper Campfield Market.

The Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair (GNCCF) returns to Upper Campfield Market in Manchester, from October 10-13, 2019 for its 12^th edition. This once a year, award-winning show brings together over 160 specially selected designer-makers to sell their work and has become a must-attend event for exhibitors and buyers alike.

Expect a diverse range of talents and stories from professional makers including jewellers, ceramicists, furniture-makers, textile and glass artists, metalsmiths and printmakers. This is a rare chance to buy some genuinely individual pieces direct from the artists and talk to them about their work and the inspirations that guide them.

To celebrate, we’ve teamed up with the Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair to offer five lucky winners a pair of tickets to this unique shopping and cultural event. To be in with a chance of winning, please simply sign up to the Northern Soul newsletter (details of how to do this are on the right-hand side of the page) and send an email to emma@northernsoul.me.uk with the title ‘GNCCF’.
