About The Show
Welcome to The Artisan Show – a celebration of handmade, heritage, and heart.
Set in some of the most beautiful historic locations in the country, The Artisan Show brings together the very best of British craftsmanship in an experience designed to inspire, delight, and immerse you.
Explore our stunning venues:
Staunton Harold Hall, a Grade I listed Georgian mansion overlooking a tranquil lake, set within 2,000 acres of breathtaking parkland. A truly timeless setting where creativity meets grandeur.
Maxstoke Castle – a spectacular, privately owned and continuously inhabited moated castle dating back to the 14th century. Steeped in history and utterly atmospheric, it promises to be one of our most unforgettable locations yet.
Across our shows, you’ll discover over 300 carefully hand-picked artists and makers, each showcasing the very best in British craftsmanship. From blacksmiths, ceramicists, artists and glassmakers, to candle makers, stone carvers, willow weavers, perfumers, leather workers and more – this is a true feast of creativity.
And let’s not forget the flavours. Enjoy exceptional food producers and artisan street food traders, all adding to the sensory experience.
Come and wander, meet the makers, hear their stories, and watch traditional skills brought to life. Take your time. Immerse yourself. Celebrate the beauty of handmade.
The Artisan Show isn’t just an event – it’s an experience. One not to be missed.
