Chester Ceramics Fair

CCF 2026: The Clay Trail

Follow the Clay Trail

The Chester Ceramics Fair weekend isn’t just about the fair.

We’re inviting local pottery studios to open their doors and become part of the very first CCF Clay Trail.

Running alongside the Chester Ceramics Fair, the Clay Trail will give you the chance to discover some of the brilliant pottery studios and ceramic spaces in and around Chester – places where ceramics are taught, explored and brought to life every day.

Visit a studio, meet the people behind it, see where the making happens and discover a different side of Chester’s creative community.

Local studios. One weekend. Plenty of clay.

The Clay Trail will run over the same weekend as Chester Ceramics Fair, giving you the opportunity to build your own ceramics adventure.

Make a day of it.
Visit the fair.
Explore a studio or two.
Discover a new maker.
And, of course, find some beautiful things along the way.

Keep an eye on this page for the full Clay Trail details, participating studios and timings.
