This March Lincoln BIG is working with Market Place Europe to bring the returning Continental Market to Lincoln along the High Street where there will be a huge range of traders, tasty foods and unique craft from all across the globe. From Thursday 17th March to Sunday 20th March 2016 Lincoln will be bursting with flavour and a fantastic family friendly atmosphere, offering visitors the opportunity to visit a number of countries and try something different.
One of the many traders who will be visiting Lincoln is King of Afrika Unite, bringing a fantastic range of handmade arts and crafts including designer jewellery made solely out of recycling old cutlery. King is an Ambassador for his village Wrongtime which is located in Zimbabwe.
Here Afrika Unite hires local residents to professionally and carefully make the wired products whilst King makes his own bespoke rings and bracelets all made from recycled cutlery such as knives, forks and spoons. The success of this venture has enabled King to buy Wrongtime village an 80 kVA generator to independently create energy for the village as well as 2 tractors to assist in agricultural duties, all due to the sales and success of his products at the Continental Markets!
Some of the other Continental traders who will be in Lincoln for the 4-day event include Crepes Temptation who will be offering authentic French crepes with a selection of toppings as The Greek Grill House have some delicious gyros meat skewers, Greek dips and cheeses. Native Handicraft will also be bringing some beautiful and hand knitted South American Knitwear.
On Thursday 17th March we will be celebrating St Patrick’s Day as our traders will be dressed in green in honour of the emerald isle. If you’re not sure about something, just ask one of our friendly traders who will be more than happy to help. It is going to be the place to be!
Opening hours of the Continental Market are:
Thursday to Saturday: 09:00 to 18:00
Sunday: 10:00 to 17:00
King is always smiling and happy to help! |
