A brand new shopping event is coming to the Exhibition Centre Liverpool this month (28 October) as GoodMarket XL invites visitors to discover more than 130 independents during a giant celebration of artisan makers.
Combining shopping with entertainment, GoodMarket XL, will see visitors enjoy food and drinks from artisan producers whilst exploring art, prints, homeware, local craft drinks, clothing, accessories and gifts from a carefully curated collection of independent pop-ups. There will also be live music and DJ sets from Good Market resident DJs Coffee and Turntables.
The event, supported by Hugh Baird College, is free to attend and will be jam-packed with artisan makers and businesses including Wexbaby, Skyn Bakery, The Octopus Garden, JG Illustrations, Bean Coffee and Turncoat Gin, as well social traders from BlaST.
Independents such as Pawdrobe HQ, Neon Moon Pet Boutique and Frenchie Fancies will also be showcasing their latest treats and accessories for pampered pooches, while The Storybarn will be keeping children entertained with reading and craft sessions throughout the day.
Those looking to unleash their own creativity can take part in one of the interactive workshops on offer such as seasonal scents candle making with Kip Candle Co, bouquet making with A Slower Space and limoncello and cocktail masterclasses with Zest.
Organisers of GoodMarket XL, Alex and Rebekah Frech, who also run the city’s regular Good Market events, are looking forward to expanding their much-loved pop-up shopping experience into a full-day event at the Exhibition Centre Liverpool.
Tickets for GoodMarket XL are available free of charge with a limited number of VIP passes on offer (£10 per person), which include a complimentary glass of fizz by Think Wine and a goodie bag.
