Teenage Market Middleton

Event Date 1 Dec 2024

Event Type: Arts & Culture

The Teenage Market is a fast-growing national initiative that’s transforming town and city centres with the creativity of young people.

The Teenage Market gives young people a free platform to showcase their creative talents. It’s all about supporting the next generation of market traders and bringing an influx of energy, vibrancy and diversity to towns across the UK. Our events are the perfect opportunity for markets to connect with their town’s population of young people, by providing a platform for them to be entrepreneurial, trial new business ideas and sell creative products.

As well as a creative retail offer, a really important part of our Teenage Market events is performance. Whether it’s young bands, dancers, musicians or stand-up comedians, our events are an amazing opportunity for young performers to showcase their creative talents in the heart of their town or city. The events are also great for large, local community groups to showcase their unique skills and talents, who also bring along friends and family for support.

When combined, the creative fusion of specialist retail and live performance creates a thriving and bustling marketplace which succeeds in attracting a new generation of shoppers and visitors to our nation’s local markets. Our Teenage Market events have proven that giving a free platform to aspiring young entrepreneurs and performers can transform our town and city centres, animate our high streets and revitalise our local markets.

After the success of the Rochdale Teenage Market at the Town Hall in October 2024, the Middleton Teenage Market will take place on Sunday 1st December from 11am to 3pm.

This is a free event with no tickets required - just turn up and enjoy the day!

You’ll find young people performing and running stalls, selling handmade items and unique gifts. Expect live singers, musicians, poets, and a rock band.
