We’re popping up at The Ministry all summer long!
That’s right!! Our first market there was such a smash hit at the beginning of this year, we’re excited to be hosting a whole series of markets there this summer.
We’ll be there three times over summer and you’ll find all the dates below. On each day you’ll find a different line-up of 35 small businesses, and each brand will be selling a variety of gorgeous handmade, vintage, reworked and new items all with a discount. Spanning art, jewellery, ceramics, fashion, bags, scrunchies, homeware, prints, fashion, accessories, bag charms and lots more.
We’re so proud to be working at The Ministry again as it’s an absolutely amazing central London location. Just a few minutes walk from Borough tube station on the Northern Line, Elephant & Castle tube station on the Bakerloo and Northern lines as well as Elephant & Castle train station. It’s also just a 10 minute walk from London Bridge and other iconic locations including Borough Market, so you’re in the perfect spot to enjoy a whole amazing day out.
On site you’ll find a cafe with indoor seating where you can get hot and cold drinks, boozy cocktails and beers plus toasties and cakes! And they have a lovely outdoor terrace if it’s sunny where you can while away a few hours with a drink in your hand, after you’re done shopping!
Our final market there will be our end of summer Sample Sale, where you can shop with 20% - 80% off! Please note we’re expecting this Sample Sale event to be busy and it is likely you will have to queue to get in.
