We are delighted to return to Waterperry Gardens for the 3rd edition of Handmade Oxford, The International Contemporary Crafts Festival, from Friday 16 – Sunday 18 June 2023. The festival will now be held over three days instead of 4 as in previous editions.

The festival will feature new and returning craftspeople on the lawns in front of Waterperry House. With a relaxed summer atmosphere for all to enjoy, this festival offers the chance for visitors to meet, browse, and directly shop from over 150 exceptional craftspeople. We aim to bring together those passionate about high-quality craft and design, both locally and around the country.

“Wonderful exhibitors, completely inspiring and delicious food. The setting at Waterperry Gardens was perfect. I was in seventh heaven!”- Lindsey Hunter, Hopetown & Hunter, Handmade Oxford 2022 Visitor

Working in collaboration with Waterperry Gardens, Handmade Oxford also offers a packed programme of craft workshops, demonstrations, and engaging talks, that will keep visitors occupied throughout the festival whilst enjoying the beautiful gardens. There will certainly be something for everyone. Live music by local musicians and local artisan food will add to the fun festival atmosphere.
