THE BIG CRAFT EVENT WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2013; WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU TO OUR NEXT EVENT.

Dates: 2025 dates are Easter Sunday 20 April 2025 and Sunday 16 November 2025

Open: 10am to 4pm

Venue: Epic Centre, Lincolnshire Showground, Lincoln LN2 2NA. (Click here for our Location Page with map.) 

Parking: Free - and lots of it!

Entrance: £3.50 per person, under 16s free, payable at the door. We take cash (correct money really helpful please) but we can also take card payments. If our disabled visitors have a carer with them, the carer is admitted free.

Dogs: Assistance dogs are of course allowed in. With other dogs please be aware this is a busy event and paws may be at risk of being trod on. Ideally we prefer no dogs but a carried dog is fine. Please don’t bring your dog for training reasons.

Sewing Machines: During our November event there will be many sewing machines from Couling Sewing Machines to try (and deals!).

Refreshments: There will be an upstairs cafe (lift available) offering delicious cakes, sandwiches and hot / cold drinks. This is run by a separate contractor.

COVID: If you have COVID, please DO NOT attend. Crafters may ask you to use a hand sanitiser before handling their crafted items. We ask you please to respect others’ decisions and use a hand sanitiser if requested to do so. Thank you.

Disabled access / parking: Disabled parking available, plus the Epic Centre has easy disabled access. The loos are suitable for those with mobility issues. Contact the organiser if you require additional planning in advance. The venue usually has a wheelchair available for visitor use
