A unique market event is returning to Swindon this weekend for its third year.

The Most Curious Mysterious Alt Market will be at Steam Museum on September 21 and 22 showcasing over 80 local businesses offering everything from tattoos, quirky gifts, homemade cakes and permanent jewellery.

Organiser Hannah said: “We saw thousands flock last year and are hoping to create the same great atmosphere and continue growing the alternative market each year.

“It will be even bigger this year with lots more stalls in the main hall at the steam museum, including a food and drinks court outside.

“This is event is truly one of a kind, you will find all sorts of one-off items that have been handcrafted, designed and curated by many crafters and hobbyists.

“The alternative market was started to include not just crafters but people with a different style and imagination designing and selling all sorts of amazingly creative items.

“There was a gap in the market for Alternative markets as customers and vendors asked us as a business to create something they could experiment with and showcase different items to their normal ranges.

“We are currently running a giveaway too to win a £50 voucher to spend at the event.”
