Adding to the festival’s vibrant atmosphere, the Floating Market will once again take place along the Shropshire Union Canal, bringing a colourful array of narrowboats brimming with artisan goods, handmade crafts and tempting treats. Visitors can browse unique wares directly from the tow path, enjoy chatting to the friendly traders, and soak up the lively canal-side buzz. From locally made preserves and baked goods to handcrafted gifts and canal-inspired curiosities, the Floating Market offers a truly distinctive shopping experience – perfectly blending Market Drayton’s waterways heritage with the Ginger and Spice Festival’s love of food, culture and community.
