Pop-up barrows are now available to rent by the day in the heart of the vibrant and newly restored Derby Market Hall.
Following a stunning £35.1 million restoration, the 159-years-old Market Hall has been transformed into a lively hub of independent shopping, tasty bites, and city-centre buzz—perfect for attracting footfall and growing your brand.
Our pop-up barrows are centrally located on the ground floor, giving you prime visibility in one of Derby’s most iconic and bustling spaces. We are even able to offer power sockets on a first come, first served basis, please email us ahead of your booking date to request this.
The dimensions of our barrows are as follows...
2m Width x 0.760 Depth x 1m Height.
*We are not able to accept pop up traders who sell similar/alike products with our permanent traders (please check our website) for example crystals*
Two chairs are provided for use with each barrow hired from us. You must ensure you do not leave any products on the premises each night, unless trading the next day only, but items stored in our lock-away cupboards under the barrows will be left at owners risk.
While the law puts the onus on traders to make sure allergen information is made readily available to customers, we now require all food traders to clearly display a complete ingredients list and allergen guide for all products. This is in the interests of transparency and customer safety.
During your time at the Market Hall, we may be hosting live music, entertainment or themed events. These may include loud music, special fx & props across our venue. Should you have any questions or concerns about this, please let us know prior to your arrival, so we can best accommodate you.
Should we need to cancel an accepted or booking on our waitlist for an up-coming date you have made with us, we will not be able to offer a refund, but instead, will compensate you with a future date of booking of the same value as the one booked.
*Please note the LATEST TIME to apply is at 1pm the day BEFORE the booking*
