WITH more than 100 stallholders, the annual Christmas in the Home market is set to make Christmas shopping a breeze when it opens for trading on December 6.
This annual three-day gift and craft market provides a high-quality trading platform for entrepreneurs and creative artists who do not necessarily have their own shops. This year’s mix of exhibitors included upmarket home décor, boutique-style clothing and accessories, jewellery, art and children’s toys and clothing.
The market will again take place at the centrally located Fairview Centre in Willow Road, Gqeberha.
According to event coordinator, Elsje Smuts, more than 6 000 visitors are expected to attend the city’s premier seasonal market.
“I think people enjoy the fact that they always find something unique at Christmas in the Home – items you wouldn’t normally find in a shop.”
“For some of these artists, the market is the only public platform they use to sell their wares. It’s really something special and there is something for everyone – from quirky to classic tastes.”
Smuts said her organising team had worked hard to create an inspiring environment for people to do their shopping away from the hustle and bustle of shopping malls. The venue offers ample indoor space, as well as laid-back outdoor space where dad can relax whilst mom is shopping up a storm.
The market will trade between 9:00 to 17:00 on Friday, December 6, from 9:00 to 17:00 on Saturday, December 7, and from 9:00 to 15:00 on Sunday, December 8.
Entrance fee is R20 per person.
