We are looking forward to welcoming you back on site at Kirkleatham for the Festival of Thrift on the 25^th and 26^th September, but as I’m sure you are aware, Covid-19 guidance for festivals is continually evolving.

We are working hard behind the scenes to confirm what might be possible, so thank you for your continued patience.

We will be operating a two-stage process this year: 

1. Stage One: a simple Expression of Interest (EOI) form which we will use to shortlist applications.  Friday 16^th April to Friday 30^th April
2. Stage Two: an invitation to apply where you will be asked to supply all of the relevant information and documentation we require in one go, as well as a deposit payment for your pitch.  From the week commencing 24^th May.

Even if you have traded with us before, please take the time to complete the EOI, as details change and many of you will have new products and images to share.

We will also have some new opportunities, outside of the September festival, and the details you provide on the EOI will help us to tailor our invitations to you.
