The journey of establishing Darkside Markets began in 2022, inspired by the need for a welcoming space after facing judgment at traditional craft fairs with my beloved Coffins.

The turning point came when I hosted the first market at the Bridgtown Social Club in Cannock, which exceeded all expectations, prompting me to create more events for the Alternative community to thrive.

As support from vendors and attendees grew, it became clear that these markets were more than just a trading space, they fostered a tight-knit community that celebrates individuality and creativity.

I am deeply grateful for the unwavering support from all of you and look forward to keeping the spirit alive by bringing you fantastic traders and unique experiences

Please help us spread the word about our special Alternative community on our Facebook page, and I can’t wait to see everyone at future markets! 🖤
