The Artisan Market

St Ives Food & Drink Festival

Artisan Market

At the heart of the festival, the Artisan Market is a vibrant showcase of the South West’s finest makers, producers, and creative talent.

This year, we’ve partnered with Cornwall Shop Small and Cornwall Food & Farming to bring you a premier selection of the county’s most exciting talent.

This bustling marketplace invites visitors to explore a carefully curated selection of handcrafted goods, locally sourced food, and unique artisanal products.

Wander through a diverse collection of stalls featuring everything from small-batch preserves, freshly baked treats, and craft spirits to handmade ceramics, textiles, and coastal-inspired artwork. Each trader brings a passion for quality and authenticity, offering visitors the chance to meet the makers, hear their stories, and discover the inspiration behind their work.

Whether you’re searching for a special gift, sampling regional flavours, or simply soaking up the lively atmosphere, the Artisan Market is a must-visit destination within the festival. It’s a celebration of creativity, community, and craftsmanship – perfect for food lovers and curious explorers alike.
