The Horsham Young Traders Market is just around the corner and we’ve got fantastic live entertainment lined up on West Street on 28 June! 🎶

Joining us on West Street from 12–1pm is Emma Olsen. Originally from Worthing and now based in Pulborough, Emma is a talented singer-songwriter and cover artist whose debut single, Lace, Ropes & Leather, is making waves.

Having started performing at just 14, Emma has balanced her passion for music with careers in agriculture, animal science, shepherding and veterinary nursing. Performing across Sussex, Surrey and Hampshire, she has built a reputation as the singing shepherdess.

Come and see Emma live, browse the market, and support some incredible young entrepreneurs.

Our waste and recycling crews work hard to keep our communities' clean lets help keep them safe too.🚛♻️

Please remember:

- Give our vehicles plenty of space.
- Never mount the pavement to get past our vehicles, this puts our operatives lives at risk.
- Never overtake while they’re stopping or reversing.
- Watch for crew members working near the road.

A moment of care can make a big difference.💚

This is ground control.... Thin White Duke Band is landing in Horsham this Friday! 🚀

Let’s Dance the night away with an evening of iconic David Bowie hits! Horsham Markets will also be serving up a fantastic selection of food and drink stalls each week, alongside a range of brilliant local businesses to explore before, during, and after the event.

If you have accessibility needs, you are welcome to use a chair. However chairs must be kept in appropriate areas so we can ensure the safe and efficient running of the event. If they are likely to cause an obstruction staff may ask you to move to a different area; our volunteers are always happy to assist.
