About Us
This will be our fourteenth year and during those years we have grown into one of the major players in the craft and gift fair market, organising important events throughout the country. Whether you have been with us since year one, or are thinking of exhibiting with us for the first time, we wish you a happy and successful 2010, and proudly present our diary of events for the year.
We exist and thrive because we provide venues at which small Craft and Gift businesses can promote their products, and all of our events and venues have been selected to further this aim. We organise two main types of event;

- Large Craft and Gift exhibitions, usually housed in marquees, at agricultural shows and other major events. We are long established at many of these events but we are constantly looking for new ones. In 2010 our new additions will include The Royal Windsor Horse Show, the Suffolk Agricultural Show, the Bakewell Show and the Southport Flower Show.
- Christmas Craft and Gift Fairs at major town centre venues. These include our 'flagship' event - the Royal Kingston Christmas Fair.

We have a solid core of long established exhibitors, but we are always looking out for new ones. We particularly welcome applications from those with high quality crafts and gifts that will add variety to our fairs.
During the last two years we have lived through extremely difficult trading conditions, and it is by no means certain that things will be much easier in 2010. The only way to thrive in such conditions is to apply the highest possible standards to every aspect of our presentation to the public. We at Eden Crafts are constantly striving to improve the environment in which we are inviting you to trade, and we ask you to do the same with your own displays. In particular we ask all exhibitors to provide vertical panels, approximately 2m high, which will cover the back and two sides of the stand. Tables must be covered with an attractive cloth that reaches the floor on all sides.
