What is included in the ticket price?
The ticket includes:
- access to the event on both days
- lunch and refreshments on both days

The price of the ticket does not include any other costs associated with attending, including accommodation or travel costs. These must all be arranged and paid for separately by the attendee.
Which shops and workshops will be at the event?
All stallholder announcements made so far are on our website, as well as on our social media and in the attendee Facebook group. Workshop announcements have started too and these are also on our website!
I have my ticket, how do I join the attendees group?
You can join the attendees group via this link. Please note: you will need to provide the order number in order to join, so if someone else purchased your ticket, please obtain this from them.
Is there a group rate for the hotel?
We have negotiated a group rate with Leeds Hilton City which will be accessible via a link that will be shared with ticket holders. Please note that all hotel bookings must be made directly with the Hilton and their booking terms and conditions will apply. While we've arranged this special rate for our attendees, The Planners Department is not involved in the accommodation booking process and all hotel-related inquiries should be directed to the Hilton directly.
Is parking included at the venue?
Parking is not included in the price of the ticket. If staying at Hilton Leeds City, it is £18 to park from 7am Saturday until 6.30pm Sunday, or £31 for the full weekend, Friday night to 6.30pm Sunday. If you choose to stay elsewhere, parking at the venue is £12 per day. Stallholders can unload and load free of charge.
I will be travelling by train or air, where is the nearest train station or airport?
The venue is less than a 5 minute walk from Leeds City train station and about a 30 minute drive from Leeds Bradford International Airport.
How do I apply for a stall at the event?
