Handmade pieces, local gifts and fresh bakes are set to fill The Train Station in Sunderland on Saturday, 13 June 2026, as the Art, Craft, and Graze Market returns with a relaxed market day built around local makers.
The Sunderland BID event runs from 9am to 3pm. The venue is The Train Station, entry is listed at £7.50, and the event information states that no booking is required. It is aimed at anyone who wants a slower browse through art, craft and food stalls rather than a rushed shopping trip.
A Saturday market for makers, browsers and food stalls
The Art, Craft & Graze Market is built around meeting the people behind the work. Visitors can expect original artwork, handmade crafts, locally made gifts and home décor, alongside food and drink from independent producers.
The source description puts the emphasis on taking time: having a wander, talking to creatives and browsing pieces made by local artists and makers. That gives the market a different pace from a standard retail stop, with the focus on stalls where the maker, artist or producer is part of the experience.
Food is part of the draw too. Sunderland BID lists fresh bakes, savoury treats and artisan produce among the expected stalls, with coffee available from the coffee caribe pod. For visitors planning a morning visit, that makes the event work as both a browse and a short food stop.
What visitors can expect at The Train Station
The confirmed highlights include original artwork and handmade crafts, locally made gifts and home décor, fresh bakes, savoury treats and artisan produce. The event also promises a relaxed atmosphere filled with creativity, with space to explore, taste and speak with the people running the stalls.
That mix should suit several types of visitors: people looking for locally made gifts, those who collect artwork or craft pieces, and anyone who wants a low-pressure Saturday morning out in Sunderland. The wording from Sunderland BID also points to the market being open to the generally curious, not only regular craft buyers.
The venue is listed simply as The Train Station. No transport notes, access details or full street address were included in the supplied event information, so visitors should check their own route before setting off.
