The Dummer Fair returns for 2025, and is one of Hampshire’s most successful charity shopping fairs.
The event, hosted in the Dummer Cricket Centre in Basingstoke, takes place on Wednesday 8 (6 pm – 9 pm) and Thursday 9 October (9.30 am – 3.30 pm), featuring over 90 stalls selling their local crafts, products and services and attracts more than 1,000 visitors.
The local stalls include artisanal food and drink, hand-made clothing and luxurious makeup and skincare. Stunning homeware, luxury skincare and fragrances will also make an appearance, bringing high-quality design and craft straight to you. With many years of success, Dummer Fair is a visitor favourite and is one of the most successful charity fairs in Hampshire.
Many visitors who come to the Dummer Fair are returning visitors, having attended for many years in support of raising funds for Treloar’s. Proceeds from the event directly help the students of Treloar School and College, one of the UK’s largest specialist centres for disabled young people to live and learn whilst providing personalised support. Treloar’s is a charity that provides education, therapy and care to help young disabled people take control of their lives and reach their full potential. Every purchase made at the Dummer Fair will help Treloar’s as a Hampshire-based charity, so you can start ticking off your Christmas shopping list or treat a loved one (or yourself) knowing you are helping disabled young people.
Advance booking is recommended to avoid disappointment and can be purchased at an exclusive Advanced Ticket price from Treloar’s website: The Dummer Fair | Treloars
