In establishing a Monthly Artisan Market, Crafty Vintage demonstrate that they are dedicated to supporting small businesses, local talent and contributing to our vibrant town centre.
We hope that this continues to bring new people to Darwen, who will get to explore our fantastic independent businesses, our very own Darwen Market and all that our town has to offer.

Our market is a true celebration of community, featuring the very best in artisanal goods, delectable street food, and captivating live entertainment. Discover a diverse range of high-quality products, carefully curated by talented local artisans, makers, and creators. From handcrafted ceramics and textiles to mouthwatering artisanal foods, every item at our market tells a unique story of talent and passion.
There will be fun for all the family, with free children’s activities funded by both Blackburn with Darwen Council and Darwen Town Council. We’re thrilled to be a dog-friendly market, so feel free to bring your furry friend along to join in the fun!
