Handmade Oxford, The International Contemporary Crafts Festival

Handmade Oxford, The International Contemporary Crafts Festival is back after two years!

Taking place at the prestigious Waterperry Gardens, this edition of Handmade Oxford will have an open-air festival feel over four days. You will be able to browse and shop for exquisite, contemporary British craft, participate in a packed programme of craft workshops, and watch live demonstrations hosted by our designer-makers. A slow living section will be present with sustainable products and there will be opportunities to listen to talks and watch demonstrations from a range of experts. Makers will be on hand to explain their work and showcase their unique collections throughout the four days.

You will also have the added advantage of access to Waterperry’s beautiful historic gardens plus artisan food and drinks will be available. With a chance to test and try treats before purchase, the artisan area will provide an opportunity to buy and enjoy artisan products.

Tickets are available now and the full exhibitor list, workshops, and talks are updated weekly on our website.

We will follow the latest government guidelines to ensure our event is as safe as possible with the necessary and required COVID-19 safety protocols.

Children under 16 enter free and a free personal assistant ticket will be free of charge for a carer. Please bring proof of eligibility with you to show at the entrance upon arrival.
