According to the organisers, all market trading slots have already been booked up, despite the event being nearly a month away!
Lisa Cowley from Independent Street said: "We are so excited to be working with Bents Garden & Home.
"Our Artisan Market will be a great addition to the already fabulous offering inside of Bents. It will be an event for the local neighbourhood; a chance for residents to come together.
"Pop along and join us, it is a superb opportunity to find out the origins of your food and meet our makers and bakers... See you there!"
