Summer sees the city come alive, with the fairs coinciding with some major events and attractions including the Albert Dock Pirate Weekend, On the Waterfront, the Liverpool ONE Beach and the Tickle the Ivories piano festival. A series of creative workshops will also take place at the events, where members of the public can get crafty themselves!

Pitch details: The event will have approx. 30 pitches. A pitch includes one 6 x 2.3ft trestle table and one chair. All pitches will be sheltered within an outdoor marquee running the length of Thomas Steers Way. The marquees will have white/transparent sides and a bi-colour roof in white/red and white/blue.
