THIS year’s Makers Market Hamilton Pop Up Shop has been cancelled over uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 and after organisers were unable to secure an appropriately sized location in the town’s centre.

The annual market was scheduled to be held from November 19 to December 22 and feature over 80 of the best local artists, makers, and growers displaying their handmade goods.
