The Outdoor Arts UK Artist Marketplace is a chance for artists and companies to showcase bookable work to a range of festivals, programmers, local councils and BIDs.

If you have a show that is bookable for 2023 and beyond, we want to hear from you!

The Marketplace is part of the Outdoor Arts UK Conference 2023: Reconnect and will take place on Thu 2 Feb 2023 in Bradford between 13:00 – 18:00.  

Applications are now open and will close on Tue 3 Jan at 12 Noon.  

As part of the application, you will need short copy about your show (50 words) and a high resolution image along with other information such as appropriate audience type, scale of audience, show duration and cost to programmers. Please have this information ready before starting the application as you can’t save and exit once you’ve started! If you have this information ready, the application should take you around 15 minutes to complete.

If you have any questions about the application process, please contact fee@outdoorartsuk.org by 22 Dec.  

We are offering showcasing artists a hotel room for the night of 1st February (either single or twin), plus £125 per artist/company towards travel costs and a full day conference ticket including lunch.
