An exciting new market celebrating local businesses and craft traders is coming to Edinburgh this summer.
The Neighbourgood Market has teamed up with Support The Makers to create a new Saturday Makers Market, which will operate in the heart of Stockbridge on the grounds of Accies Rugby Club.
The market will be held every Saturday from 10am, and it will run for the duration of The Neighbourgood Market (17th May – 23rd July).

The organisers say the event will host up to 50 local businesses and craft traders, selling a mix of locally made produce and goods, including textiles, freshly baked goods, artwork, candles, fresh meats, and much more.
Sharing their excitement about the new market, the event director of The Neighbourgood Market, Ambika Okhandiar, said: "This is an excellent partnership and one we're very proud of.
"It was a natural next step for The Neighbourgood Market to increase the craft trader offering which complements our existing street food and drink offer.
"The Saturday market will provide a platform for local traders to show off their skills and products and we're delighted we can give them that opportunity."
Delighted by the partnership, Support The Makers owner Carmen added: "We are thrilled to be teaming up with The Neighbourgood Market this summer to add a Makers Market every Saturday that will champion the very best of Scotland’s handmade craft traders.
"We’re super excited about this collaboration and cannot wait to welcome everyone to our opening weekend in May.
"Applications to join the market as a trader are still open, and we would encourage you to sign up at our website."
