Chichester’s Cross Market and More event October 2022

Save the date: Sunday, October 16, is the last one of the year

The last Cross Market and More event of 2022 will be taking place in Chichester on Sunday 16 October.

This will be the third event to take place this year, and promises another unique mix of entrepreneurs and artists, while offering a platform for local businesses and organisations to show their skills and bring the community together.

The event will take place in North Street and East Street, Chichester, between 10am to 4pm and will be showcasing the best producers, makers, designers and young entrepreneurs from the area.

Visitors will be able to enjoy live music and dance, children’s activities such as Bignor Villa Pumpkin Patch colouring competition, Spotty Dotty Bubbles, and a children’s carousel.

Food and drink will be in abundance including Cherry on Top with yummy bakes, The Land Doughver woodfired pizza, as well as speciality coffee from the Trading Post Coffee Roasters airstream trailer and luxurious hot chocolate from the Chocolate Pod.

Petworth Pop Up will also be attending with traders from north of the district.

Cathy Whitby of Pop Up Petworth says: “We are really looking forward to bringing Petworth Pop Up back to The Chichester Cross Market & More. Our very talented makers and creators will have a wide range of products to offer a diverse shopping experience for the Chichester community.”

Councillor Alan Sutton, Cabinet Member for Housing, Communications, Licensing and Events at Chichester District Council, says: “Chichester District Council introduced these markets last year as a way of helping bring more people into the city in order to support the high street, and they have been very well received. It’s also been wonderful to partner with the college and see the amazing work that their students do, and for them to be able to share their skills with the wider public.

“As this is the last of these events until next year, it will be a good opportunity for people to pick up some festive gifts and find loved ones something really unique.”
