Traders, the gates are open!

The time has come — trader applications are now open!

Whether you have been part of our magical worlds before or are joining us for the first time, we would love to hear from you. This year, however, the path to joining us is a little different.

We are no longer working with a waiting list. Instead, traders can apply directly through the application forms below, and we will review applications according to the process outlined here.

Sudeley

2027 Trader application

For Sudeley, we have made a small distinction between different years of participation.

Traders who have traded at Sudeley between 2019 and 2024 and who still traded with us in 2026, will be automatically welcomed back, provided that they complete the application form.

Traders who have joined us at Sudeley in 2025 and/or 2026 are welcome to apply again. These applications will be reviewed and considered as part of this year’s selection process.

Libertalia

2027 Trader application

For Libertalia, we will be taking things one year at a time. Previous participation does not automatically guarantee a place, so all traders should complete the application form for the year they wish to attend.

Important dates

The application gates will remain open until: 15 October.

Once applications have closed, our team will begin the selection process.

You will hear from us no later than 31 October to let you know whether you have been selected.

If we decide to welcome additional traders after this date, we will contact those traders directly.

If you don’t hear from us, unfortunately this means that you have not been selected for this year’s event.

Questions?

If you have a question that isn’t answered while filling in the application form, our inbox is open!

Please send your questions to: anna@fantasyforest.co.uk

We can’t wait to see what wonderful wares, creations and curious treasures you will bring to our worlds this year.
