IKIGAI Winter Market

Join us to celebrate the connections between Japan and Scandinavia, take part in demonstrations from independent businesses, immerse yourself in the cultural specialties each have to offer and sample some delicious dishes from our food vendors. There will be small activities such as colouring competitions (for all ages) and seasonal festivities that you can take part in too! If you're looking for unique and inspiring gifts to give this Winter, this is the perfect place to find them!

If you've never heard of this before, Japandi is a combination of Japanese and Scandinavian style. It's a combination of all the best philosophies, including Wabi Sabi (perfectly imperfect) which promotes happiness, slow and simplistic living, and learning to see the beauty in imperfections. The Scandinavian practice of Hygge similarly embraces wellbeing, with an added focus on comfort and the feeling of cosiness. All our traders have been hand picked for their unique and creative offerings that fit within the theme of the event. 


Admission: £2.50 upwards
