North Norfolk Coast shopping that’s not on the high street from local producers & artisans. Dalegate Market will host four artisans & producers in the beach huts each week.
Pop Up Shops change every week at Dalegate Market. You’ll usually find four new and interesting Pop Up Shops, in the beach huts behind The Nest Cafe, from Thursday to the following Tuesday each week throughout the Summer and weekends in the run up to Christmas.
The first King’s Lynn Book Festival will be held over the weekend of 2-4 October 2026. This follows a run of more than 40 years of the King’s Lynn Literature Festivals.
The venue for all the wonderful events is the historic and most attractive Town Hall in the centre of the town.
Join rural crafter Richard Rood at Deepdale Farm for his popular one-day course introducing you to green woodworking using a spindle.
During this one-day course you’ll be introduced to the properties and handling of green wood, become familiar with tools including the draw knife and pole lathe, and ultimately make and take home a selection of objects to use at home.
The Rod Stewart Songbook’s spectacular theatre production is the ultimate homage to Sir Rod Stewart, featuring the sensational Pete McCall with his fabulous Live Band.
Featuring unforgettable hits, including Sailing, Maggie May, Da Ya Think I’m Sexy, Some Guys Have All The Luck, Baby Jane, Rhythm Of My Heart, You Wear It Well, Hot Legs and many many more.
Whether you are completely new to green woodworking, or you’ve previously done our original Introduction to Green Woodworking course using a spindle, why not have a go at bowl turning?
The aim is that by the end of the day you should have one bowl to take home, and a basic understanding of the core skills for bowl turning.
It’s a great opportunity to gain skills in this mindful rural craft.
