About the event
I will be showcasing my work with Nook Makers Collective rather than my own branded stall
The Ay-Up Market is a family-friendly event with plenty of activities to keep everyone entertained. The previous years saw the enjoyment of traditional hook-a-duck, free face painting, and balloon modelling.
An eclectic curation of creative workshops was also on the entertainment line-up in 2025.
When it comes to food and drink, there will be something for everyone - cuisine from around the world as well as tasty treats. For those who prefer something a little stronger, there will be a bar serving beers, spirits, and other refreshments.
Whether you're looking to treat yourself, buy gifts for friends and family, or simply enjoy a free, fun day out, the Ay-Up Market is worth checking out!
And whilst you're here enjoying the bustling market, you can also check out all the wonderful places in Nottingham city…
