I design and make my own gem stone and semi-precious gem stone jewellery and I would be very keen to take a stand at the RDS Christmas Fair. The space I would like is a 3×3m two fronted space.
Regards Rosemary

Hello I am just inquiring if there are any stands left available for the 2008 Christmas Craft Fair in the RDS?
I am already exhibiting at this years ‘Knitting & Stitching Show’ this October at the RDS.I would very much love to be involved in the Craft fair also. I am a Woven & Mixed Media Textile Designer. The space that I would require would be Frontage (metres) 2, Area (Sq. metres) 4, Open sides 1 and Depth (metres) 2 if possible (or of similar dimensions) and available please.
Is there a closing date?
Look forward to hearing from you,

Regards,
Gráinne Kenny(MA/Ba hons)

Dear friends,
As the dates written above at top of page are; November ‘07, and in comments people are applying for the 2008 show, I am unclear about what the dates for the NCF at the RDS for 2009 are. Can you please email me to clarify.
Many thanks, Maura

I am looking everywhere for an Irish made wooden santy - can you let me know if there is one at the show? I will try my hardest to come in and see for myself but may not be able to make it this year…

I would like to register my disappointment that the consumer must pay ten euro for the privilege of spending money

#12 Karen on 11.25.12 at 8:09 pm

I totally agree with you Aideen.

We keep our events free to the customer to make sure people do not have to put their hands in their pockets to just take a look!
We run the craft festival and the affordable gift fair
http://Www.IrishCraftFestival.com
http://Www.GiftFairireland.com

Low cost stands for our stand holders too so they are not out of pocket before they begin selling, and so they can sell their products at good prices.

Our next event -the affordable gift fair is on Sunday 9th of Dec 2012, in the Royal Marine Hotel, Dunlaoghaire, co Dublin. 10am to 5 pm. Free in, great family event

Over 60 stands of gift ideas!
