You will need your own Gazebo and 5m Public Liability Insurance for trading on the High Street. You will also need a food Hygiene rating if including food or drinks.  If your PLI is not substantial - please let us know as we may be able to find a few alternative spots inside!

 

If this isn’t for you, but you would like to showcase any food and (alcohol free) drinks we are happy for you to bring out tasters- all we ask if that you let us know and provide your PLI and food hygiene for us to keep in our file.

We would be THRILLED if you would be able to dress your venue for the event, host special cocktails- activities- spill out onto the High Street (by your venue)-anything you wish.  We aim to make this as colourful and engaging as possible.
