Skipton Artisan Market is a vibrant, community-focused market held at the beautiful Skipton Canal Basin, bringing together a fantastic selection of local artisan traders, makers, bakers, producers, crafters and independent businesses. The market creates a welcoming day out for residents and visitors, offering the chance to shop locally, meet the traders behind the products, and enjoy the unique setting of one of Yorkshire’s most popular market towns.

To celebrate Love Your Local Market, we will be promoting the importance of local markets and the positive impact they have on town centres, small businesses and the wider community. We will be sharing social media posts, trader spotlights and market-day updates to encourage people to visit, support independent traders and explore everything Skipton has to offer. Our aim is to create a lively and enjoyable market day that helps increase footfall, supports surrounding shops, cafés and hospitality businesses, and celebrates the continued value of markets within local communities.
