It is not long until the Warminster Independent Autumn Market on Sunday 1st September with a food and drink twist and a packed entertainment schedule.

The Warminster Business Network in conjunction with Warminster Town Council are working together to host the popular event from 10am to 4.30pm with the High Street and Market Place once again closed to traffic and a rich variety of stalls across the town centre and in the Civic Centre in Sambourne Road.  

The autumn market will have a food and drink theme giving visitors the opportunity to travel the world with food from around the globe. There will be exciting street food and drink, entertainment including stilt walkers, circus skills, face painters and much more, with events for all the family throughout the day.

There will also be an interesting mix of stalls including Marlowe’s Mini Makers sand art at the Civic Centre as well as a more food including burgers being served outside with the Town Crier opening the exciting joined-up event.

A Warminster Business Network spokesperson said: “The third market of the year looks to offer something a little different while maintaining the heart of the success so far. The town comes alive during the events, and we cannot wait for this one.”

The market aims to promote local businesses and encourage visitors to all areas of the town with many independent shops and cafes open for visitors.

Additional entertainment includes St Lawrence Chapel hosting Chapel tours, and The Athenæum Warminster and The Warminster Action Group providing children’s craft sessions.

New stalls are constantly being added to the exciting event. For further information follow the Warminster Town Council website and social media pages, as well as the Warminster Independent Instagram page: @the_warminster_independent_
