Makers Wanted: Join The Crafters Roadshow at Metrocentre, October 2026

Are you an independent maker or small creative business looking to get your products in front of new customers?

The Crafters Roadshow is returning to Metrocentre, Gateshead from Thursday 8 to Sunday 11 October 2026, and we’d love to welcome some new faces along.

Metrocentre is a brilliant opportunity to step away from the screen, meet customers face to face and tell the story behind what you make in one of the UK’s busiest shopping destinations.

We supply every maker with a 6ft Showcase Station and seating, so you can concentrate on bringing your products and creating a display that feels like you.

If you’ve never joined The Crafters Roadshow before, your first Saturday and Sunday weekend is half price at £80 instead of £160, giving you an easy way to come along and see how it works for your business.

You can also join us for Thursday or Friday individually at £55 per day, while the normal Saturday and Sunday weekend price is £160.

If Metrocentre sounds like your kind of opportunity, use our booking page to have a look at the available dates and send us your details.
