Returning to Compton Verney, this popular summer event is a highlight in every potter’s calendar.

Set under a number of large, open-sided marquees on immaculate lawns, overlooking the stunning lake, Potfest is an exciting opportunity to visit an artisan ceramics market, showcasing the work of over 90 of the UK’s finest ceramics makers.

Alongside local works, we also try to welcome a few of our continental colleagues and occasionally those from further afield.
