I will be trading at this event at the weekend. I will be on the platform at Wirksworth near the entertainment. The weather is looking fabulous and there's lots going on all weekend.
Please note there is no parking at Wirksworth station please use the free park and ride as the side roads gets very congested.
FREE alternative parking is available at:
📍 Haarlem Mill & TDP, Wirksworth – DE4 4BG
