Are Our West Sussex Craft Markets Worth Signing Up For? Let’s Talk Honestly.

If you’re a maker, artist, or small business owner based in West Sussex, you’ve probably asked yourself: Are local craft markets really worth it?

It’s a fair question — choosing which West Sussex craft fairs to attend takes time, money, and effort. So, at BE Events, we want to be upfront about what we do, what we believe in, and what you can expect as one of our valued stallholders.

A Friendly, Supportive Atmosphere Across West Sussex

Our West Sussex craft markets aren’t just trading events — they’re community gatherings where creativity, conversation, and connection come first.

From Worthing to Chichester, Arundel to Horsham, our markets are known for their friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Stallholders often tell us they leave feeling inspired, supported, and part of something bigger.

Even on quieter trading days, the sense of community and camaraderie makes the experience worthwhile. At BE Events, we truly believe that our crafters and stallholders are the heart of every market.

Multi-Level Advertising to Boost Every Event

We don’t just open the doors and hope people turn up. At BE Events, we believe in multi-level advertising to give each of our West Sussex craft fairs the best possible exposure.

Our promotional efforts include:

• Regular posts across social media platforms

• Listings on local community pages and event directories

• Posters and flyers distributed across West Sussex towns and villages

• Press features and collaborations with local media

Our goal is simple: to help you get your handmade products in front of as many local shoppers as possible.

Being Honest — We Can’t Guarantee Footfall

We pride ourselves on being transparent with our stallholders. While we do everything we can to attract visitors, we can never guarantee footfall.

Weather, local events, and other factors beyond anyone’s control can make a difference to turnout. What we can guarantee is that we’ll continue to work hard to promote, support, and grow every event we run in West Sussex.

We Love It When Stallholders Get Involved

We see our markets as a partnership. When stallholders help promote their attendance — by sharing posts, tagging us on social media, or telling their customers — it makes a huge difference.

Every like, share, and story helps spread the word about the amazing creative talent we have here in West Sussex. The more we all get involved, the bigger and better our community becomes.

Together, we can make every market a success.

Our Promise: Crafters Come First

Everything we do at BE Events is built around one core belief — our crafters and stallholders come first.

We take pride in organising events that feel personal, professional, and positive for everyone involved. From thoughtful stall layouts to consistent communication, every decision starts with one question: What’s best for our makers?

We’re here to champion small businesses and handmade creativity across West Sussex — not just fill tables for the sake of it.

So… Are BE Events’ West Sussex Craft Markets Worth It?

If you’re looking for a quick sale with little involvement, maybe not.

But if you’re looking for craft markets in West Sussex that are supportive, well-promoted, and community-driven — then absolutely, yes!

We believe in you, your craft, and your business — and we’re proud to create spaces where local talent can shine.
