The Festival Market runs from Hungerford Bridge to Tower Bridge on the south bank, and within St Katharine Docks on the north bank, showcasing some of London’s best street food, arts and crafts.

A number of well-known London markets and collectives are represented including the Eat Street Collective, The Crafty Fox, Greenwich Market, Leadenhall Market, The Make Lounge, Old Spitalfields Market, Piccadilly Market, Sannapanda and Friends, University of the Arts London Alumni, We Make London and Whitecross Street Market.  The Real Food Market is located on Southbank Centre Square.

University of the Arts London is proud to announce the launch of the first Artsmart pop-up market in St Katharine Docks. The Artsmart area will combine high quality street food stalls and 20 arts and crafts traders, made up of the rising stars from the University’s alumni, selling beautifully crafted one-off creations from fine art to fashion.

Over the past five years we have been working closely with Sustain (the alliance for better food and farming) to develop the sustainability of the food offer at the festival. Only vendors who aspire to reach the highest possible standards of sustainability in rearing, sourcing and production are selected to trade. Vendors must also share the Thames Festival’s commitment to Sustainable Fish City, by serving only sustainably sourced fish and seafood.
