About the Event

Set against the stunning Ballycastle Seafront, this vibrant artisan market by NNCG is as much about the community atmosphere as it is about the shopping. It’s a place where the local community and visitors come together to enjoy great food, creativity, and community spirit.


With around 60 small businesses taking part, you’ll find everything from handcrafted goods and unique artwork to mouth-watering local food. Some traders are well-established, while others are just starting out—each with a passion for what they do. It’s a chance to meet the makers, hear their stories, and support homegrown talent in a relaxed and welcoming setting.


But this market is more than just a place to shop—it’s a social experience. Whether you’re catching up with friends, chatting with local producers, or simply enjoying the lively atmosphere, it’s a fantastic way to spend the day. The backdrop of Ballycastle Beach, alongside the town’s cosy cafés, independent shops, and great restaurants, makes it the perfect stop on a trip along the Causeway Coast.
