Here in Perth and wider Perthshire we boast a creative culture that nurtures a huge number of gifted artisans who design and produce everything from pottery to pies and diamond rings to rapeseed oil! And although the end results are as diverse as they are unique, the one common theme running throughout these businesses is the exceptional quality and talent of the people involved.
The Artisans Festive Market Day is a celebration of this wonderfully creative industry and throughout Perth City Centre you will find a fantastic number of local producers and artists as well as some friends from further afield in wider Scotland. Two Christmas markets will showcase the very best in food, drink, crafts, jewellery, photography and so much more, and the Festive Truck will bring a little bit of the outlying countryside into the heart of the city – make sure you join us for what promises to be a wonderful, Christmassy day of shopping and creative talent.
