TRADING FOR 2026 - NOW OPEN!
Applications for the 2026 festival are now OPEN and will close on 31 January 2026. This is not a "First come/first served" process as all applicants are reviewed after the closing date.
We aim to advise applicants if they have been successful or not via email during the first week in February.
Due to the nature of the website your application and pitch will be referred to as a "Membership" and indicate an automated renewal. This is not the case as all trader details are automatically deleted in readiness for the following years applications. More details on the Whitefuse managed "members" database can be found on their website.
