We're piloting a brand new market for 2024!

Loughborough KickStart Market will provide a place for young new traders and entrepreneurs.

It is for people aged 16-30, who live or study in Charnwood, and are interested in either becoming a market trader or trying out running a market stall to support their new business. Students can also take a stall to sell wares or display their work.

A pilot market will take place on Sunday May 26 between 10am-4pm, in Loughborough Market Place.

The pilot is being run by the markets team at Charnwood Borough Council and supported by Loughborough University.

Alongside market stalls, Loughborough KickStart Market will also host a range of food outlets and entertainment including live music. 

The markets team have arranged public liability insurance for young traders. Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

The Council will be promoting the event to attract people along.

How to book a stall

There is no charge to have a stall at Loughborough KickStart Market. 

If you are interested in having a stall or part of a stall, please contact the Council's Markets Team on markets@charnwood.gov.uk 

It is hoped if the KickStart Market proves popular both with traders and visitors, then further markets of its kind may be held in the future.
