The Makers Fair | All Saints Church | Hove
This stunning grade I listed church was built in the thirteenth century French gothic style with beautiful stained-glass windows and carved choir stalls. This fair is in collaboration with ONE BREAD Café; a social enterprise serving locally roasted coffee, cakes and pastries, toasties and sandwiches made with the best of Sussex produce.
Join us for our last fair of the year! Packed with 65 talented artists & makers, this is the perfect opportunity for a spot of Christmas shopping.
Honey & Co. Christmas Pop-Up
We’re hosting a Christmas Makers’ Market from 21st-23rd November, to showcase works from local artists and crafts people alongside Honey & Co. products.
The Christmas Makers’ Market will be held at our Pop-up Christmas Shop at 47 Lambs Conduit Street in Bloomsbury, just across the street from our restaurant. Lamb’s Conduit Street is a gorgeous street with some wonderful retailers, including Pentreath & Hall, Toast, Folk, Aesop, as well as restaurants, Ciao Bella, Noble Rot and La Fromagerie.
The Lamb’s Conduit Street traders will be hosting a Christmas Fair on the evening of Thursday 21st November with carol singers and special events on the street, and our neighbours Noble Rot are hosting their annual Beaujolais Nouveau celebration on the same night.
Cockpit Studios, just around the corner, are also hosting their Open Studios the same weekend, showcasing their makers and craftspeople. We expect the street to have a real buzz during this time, with a lot of festive footfall to kickstart the Christmas shopping season.
