Hi everyone, so, here is the info you’ve been very patiently waiting for – Thank you so much for giving us extra space whilst we dealt with the loss of our dear friend, Isaac, who was also known to many of you.
A few of you have been asking about the new trading areas and how these changes will affect you as a trader, so I will address this first, including our reasons for changing things around.
Due to the layout of the land, the former main (upper field) this never felt right to our team. So, with the “new and improved” site plan we have arranged it so that the stalls are placed in areas where you’ll receive the most footfall, depending on the type of stall you have booked, so for instance, premium stall holders will be closest to the bigger big top which now contains our new main stage.
Also, by doing this, we are protecting festival visitors from the elements, so they will have shelter from the rain, and shade from the sun – plus the sides can be opened up if it’s really hot. So basically, we’ve go you covered! (excuse the pun!).There will also be a new bar inside the big top called “The Mermaid’s Purse” this is being run by the lovely Velvet Buccaneer tribe.
We have created a new fairy glade area where the food and cafes will be situated, near the workshops stalls , and traders. Traders who are offering workshops and crafts etc are listed on the map key. The wonderful Buccaneer Bar is in this area too, and our beautiful fairy tree. The unicorn glade area will be in between this and the fairy kingdom arena. So fairy feet will be able to flow nicely between the various “zones”. The Fairy workshop tent (Fairy School) is now at the far end of the fairy kingdom arena so it’s a little quieter for meditations etc, but still close enough to the hub of the festival and facilities.
NEW SITE MAP!

Expect the unexpected as everything is topsy-turvy, upside-down, inside-out, and back-to-front, on fairies’ orders! Our main stage is now inside an even bigger Big Top circus tent! We got you covered!
To summarise
Please know that a lot of thought has gone into this new site layout and we want to make the 3 Wishes Fairy Festival experience magical for everyone and that of course includes all of you magical traders. We do understand that some people do not feel comfortable with changes, but when you “let go and allow the fairy flow!” you’ll find it could be even better than it was before!
