    HI,
    i am a member of a craft group and we generally do the larger craft fairs..RSD, ploughing chamionships etc.
    One issue is the smaller fairs, for those who cannot afford the 900 euros or so to get into the big ones!!!

    Does anyone know of a resource giving the times and dates of fairs?
    In between the large events its great to do small ones, but generally they are poorly advertised.

    there's one on around christmas in temple bar where the food fairs go on, there's general markets where you could probably sell crafts at the weekend in Ranelagh and Blackrock..

    yeah, but sometimes there are holistic fairs and i only get to find out after.
    I guess the website of the craft counil of ireland is useful

    it seems that forthe "big" fairs they are well publisized. But The smaller local ones aren't. I found one for example which we a single small line in the local paper which someone told me about.
    It was great!
    There is no central facility for recording all the small ones.
    Would it be possible to set something up here do you think?and how would i go about it?
