Craft In Focus organisers have always been at the forefront of promoting the best designer makers and offer the public a calibre of exhibitor not always seen at other craft fairs.
At Hyde Hall, visitors will be able to visit the craft fair while enjoying the stunning surroundings.
The Craft In Focus website states: "This event offers a perfect opportunity to see outstanding work and craftsmanship from talented, professional British makers whilst also enjoying a garden of inspirational beauty with sweeping panoramas."
A spokesperson added: "All exhibitors have designed and made the work that they display and have been selected for their individuality and innovation in contemporary design, as well as outstanding technical ability.
"The UK has a wealth of individual and talented designer makers and artists who produce wonderful original items that simply cannot be found amongst the mass-produced and imported goods on the high street."
Also included is a food village with exhibitors selling delicious products, and a varied selection of live music throughout the weekend, making this an enjoyable day for the whole family.
Opening times are 10am to 5pm, with the garden closing at 6pm.
Admission to the garden also gives admission to the craft fair.
