A pop-up Artisan market at The Springs in Leeds has proved so popular that organisers have committed to make it a regular feature throughout the year.
The ‘Leeds Local Market’ debuted at The Springs earlier this month to celebrate Yorkshire Day, and hosted by Yorkshire Urban Markets, the event is said to have exceeded all expectations, prompting plans to make The Springs a regular market destination alongside established markets in Meanwood and Rothwell.
Rachel Vickers, Senior Commercial Manager at Scarborough Group International, developer and asset manager of The Springs and Thorpe Park Leeds, said: “As demonstrated through our seasonal events programme, we are committed to bringing in new and exciting attractions to The Springs on a regular basis.
“We are thrilled that the Leeds Local Market proved so popular for our visitors and that we were also able to support independent traders where some sold out of their wares in just a few hours. The event also boosted footfall for our existing stores where many reported increased trading.”
New dates are yet to be arranged.
