Brockley and Ladywell Christmas Markets call for stallholders

In only a few years, the Ladywell and Brockley Christmas markets have established themselves as popular fixtures in the local calendar. Once again, both will take place on the same day - this year, December 11th:

Ladywell Village Improvement Group says:

This year, the market will take place at Railway Terrace. As well as offering the best in seasonal produce, unique gifts, arts and crafts and home made tasty treats, we will be keeping the crowds entertained with carols sung by local choirs and a special guest to switch on the Christmas tree lights.

If you are interested in taking in taking a stall at this years market please get in touch soon as they will be offered on a first come, first served basis. The cost of a pitch at the market is £50 for a covered stall. For traders who have their own public liability insurance we can offer a discounted rate of £40 per stall.

If you would like to get involved with the event in other ways we will be looking for volunteers to deliver leaflets in the local area or to be a marshall on the day. Any help you can offer this community event will be much appreciated.

The Brockley Cross Action Group says:

We very much hope you will join us! This year’s event will run from 12.00 midday until 6.00pm and will be located in Coulgate Street next to Brockley Station. The Street will be closed for the day.

We are inviting applications for market stalls for the event. This community event has been a big success over the last 3 years – despite rain in 2008! – and we intend to make the 2010 Market our best yet. The Brockley Christmas Market has quickly established itself as a popular annual event that is well attended, draws the local community together and helps bring a lot of Christmas cheer to Brockley! We also had good feedback from last year’s stallholders, who thought the event was well organised and well attended.

Once again this year we intend to have a Santa’s grotto, live music, a lantern parade, a Christmas tree and a BXAG stall selling mulled wine and mince pies, all with the intention of making the event another memorable success! The event will be well advertised locally to maximise publicity. The Market will be a good opportunity to promote your business. BXAG will provide covered stalls and lighting, with canopies to protect against any rain. The cost of hiring a stall is £40.00.

If you are interested in having a stall for the day please email Erin on eaessex@hotmail.com
