Award-Winning Mossley Farmers Market is back for a follow up year

AFTER an incredibly successful debut year, the award-winning Mossley Farmers’ Market is returning to offer monthly events for the community from Sunday 26 April 2026.

The event, organised by Tameside Council has stalls provided by Little Owl Artisan and independent traders, where attendees can browse a range of locally sourced products and unique treats on the final Sunday of every month in Market St Car Park, from 9am-2pm.

The market, which will run up to November, will also feature a range of family‑friendly entertainment. Previous events have included buskers, character appearances such as Spiderman and the Joker, classic car shows, and face painting.

Some of the popular products on offer include homemade pies, artisan bread, fresh eggs, specialist sauce, unique drinks, baked goods and locally grown plants.

The 2025 market series grew significantly in popularity, increasing from 10 stalls at the first event to 40 stalls by the final one, and won the ‘Best Small Speciality Market’ at the Great British Market Awards.

Tameside Council’s Executive Member for Towns, Transport and Connectivity, Cllr Stephen Homer, said: “I’m really excited to see the return of such an excellent community event. The Mossley Farmers Market does a great job at fostering community pride and appreciation for the town, while also supporting local traders and businesses.

“Last year was such a successful year and it was wonderful for all involved for the market to be recognised in the Great British Market Awards. We’re excited to see what this year brings and have every confidence it will continue to be popular – thank you to everyone who supports the event, we look forward to seeing you in April.”
