Bolton Artisan Market returns today with food, fashion and more

The popular market will fill the ground floor of Market Place Bolton Shopping Centre, with more than 20 independent stalls to browse.

Shoppers can expect a wide range of handmade, artisan and locally sourced products. Food lovers will find fresh pretzels, strudel and German baked treats, alongside brownies, cupcakes, cookies and cinnamon buns. There will also be plant pots and lucky dips for those looking for something a little different.

The market is also set to showcase handmade jewellery and accessories, fashion pieces, handbags and artisan designs, as well as crystals, gifts and one‑of‑a‑kind finds. Beauty fans can explore skincare, Korean beauty and holistic products, while families can browse children’s books and educational gifts.

Organisers say the event is designed to offer a relaxed place to wander, treat yourself and support independent traders and makers from across the region.

The Bolton Artisan Street Fayre runs throughout the day and is free to attend, making it an easy stop for shoppers already in town — or a destination visit for anyone looking to discover something new.

Whether you’re after a tasty treat, a thoughtful gift or simply a browse, the market promises something for everyone.
