The Harbourside Night Market is open to the public from 5pm – 10pm.
Set-up is from 3pm, and traders must be ready to start at 5pm, and should not close early except in unusual circumstances, and with the consent of the Market Management.
GENERAL
Please make sure you arrive with enough time to be fully set-up in time for when the market opens.
Traders arriving late may not be allowed to set-up and trade at all.
PARKING AND LOADING
Please unload from the allocated areas on the site plan above.
Please use your hazard lights and stick to 5mph whilst unloading.
Traders should unload their vehicle and park, before setting up their stall – to avoid parking in the loading area too long.
Nearby parking is available at The Grove, Portwall Lane or their are metered bays around Queen Square.
There is no parking available on-site.
ALLOCATIONS
Pitch allocations will be sent the day before your booking date(s). Please note, that if you’re trading from a vehicle at our regular daytime market and at the night market, you may be required to move to a different pitch. In some cases, this will only be to provide a better trading experience for you and balance the layout of the evening market.
POWER
ELECTRICITY: Power is limited to 1 x 16amp supply per stall, so please bring a 16A plug and cable to reach your pitch. Supply is strictly limited to 3kW per stall, so check the wattage of each of your appliances and make sure you don’t exceed this.
Drawing too much power causes the whole supply to fail, and in extreme cases, can cause an electrical fire.
You are responsible for ensuring all appliances, extensions and hook-ups have an in date PAT-test certificate.
GAS: Gas appliances must be transported, stored, and used in compliance with GAS SAFE recommendations. Hoses must be in-date, safety certification up-to-date, and canisters safely secured out of reach from the public.
FOOD HYGIENE
All traders must bring evidence of up-to-date public liability insurance every time they trade. Food traders must also bring a valid food hygiene certificate.
