The Creative Crafts Association organise
Craft and Gift Fairs thoughout the North West

Welcome to our web site. You have arrived at our Home page where we try, without boring you, to give you a bit of information about our organisation.

The Creative Crafts Association have been organising Fairs for over 20 years and have grown to become one of the most successful Craft and Gift Fair Organisers in the country.

Each year we try to bring variety into our fairs with new ideas and some new venues. In 2010 we have new fairs at Worsley Park Hotel in Worsley, Brookside Garden Centre at Poynton and at the newly built Leigh Sports Village.  By popular demand we are returning to the Burnside Garden Centre in Thornton Cleveleys. Our Garden Centre events are very successful and we hope to further build on that success during 2010.

Two of our most popular venues are the Reebok Stadium Exhibition Centre, which is part of the Bolton Wanderers Football Club, and Gawsworth Hall at Macclesfield where we incorporate a dedicated Food and Drinks Marquee within our Craft and Gift event. This year at Capesthorne Hall as well as the two major Craft, Gift and Food Fairs in May and October, which are exclusively marquee events, we are holding a Christmas Craft and Gift Fair when we will have exhibitors both inside the hall itself and in an adjoining marquee.

We have a wide variety of venues. Some weekends we are exhibiting in one of our coastal resorts and others in glorious countryside within the walls of an Ancient Manor House. Great variety and really good fun.

At some events we included demonstrations or workshops and even recreations of a Medieval way of life in our tented villages. We try to make our fairs interesting for all our customers. That’s why we have lots of different venues in lots of different areas. We add unexpected extras wherever possible and we try to encourage top quality exhibitors to every fair.

Our long experience has taught us the value of researching all of our venues very carefully and also the massive importance of top rate advertising to make a successful event. Wherever we are exhibiting, each and every fair is preceded by massive advertising. We pride ourselves in putting out more road signs, often backed up with ‘AA’ type signs, than any other organisers in our area. We advertise on a large scale in all newspapers in the local areas and this almost always includes the Manchester Evening News when appropriate.

The Creative Crafts Association are once again keeping stall fees and customer admission charges lower than those of any other major organiser throughout 2010 and this is despite hefty increases in venue hire charges, advertising, sign posting and printing costs for all our posters, leaflets and brochures.

Whether you are one of our many visitors or exhibitors please feel free to look round our web site and we look forward to meeting you at one of our events in the near future.
