The award-winning Craft Festival Bovey Tracey returns this June. Enjoy an inspiring day out in Devon with PL’S half-price ticket offer

Over 200 designermaker businesses from across the UK will exhibit at Craft Festival Bovey Tracey in a beautiful parkland setting on the edge of Dartmoor National Park. The popular event is now in its 19th year and takes place between 17-19 June.

To mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee year, special guests will be the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust (QEST), which supports talented craftspeople with training and education programmes. It will be presenting past scholars who will be demonstrating their craft, including potter Rebecca Harvey from Cornwall, who makes a range of bespoke porcelain tableware and sculptural pieces.

Craft Festival Bovey Tracey is a not-for-profit organisation that hosts live events in Bovey Tracey, Devon and in Cheltenham. Its findamaker.co.uk online portal connects designermakers with customers and provides a business advice service to makers.

Tickets £10. For advance tickets and workshop details, visit craftfestival. co.uk/bovey-tracey.
