Twelve years of sensitive regeneration and investment has transformed over ten acres of vacant and derelict buildings into spectacular office, retail, leisure and unique event space. This finely tuned mix of business and leisure has created a unique environment where tenants and visitors enjoy all the benefits of a protected yet vibrant community...

MARKETS
SUNDAY UPMARKET & THE BACKYARD MARKET
Sunday UpMarket first opened its doors in September 2004. With over 140 stalls selling fashion, accessories, crafts, interiors and music, it is undoubtedly one of London's most exciting and imaginative markets.
The Old Truman Brewery has a history of supporting artists and designers, and with this in mind UpMarket aims to be a platform for designer-makers to sell direct to their customers. Many things you find on UpMarket are one-off bespoke items, produced by the stallholders themselves. You can find everything from edgy women's wear, customised men's clothing, high fashion, and beautifully tailored children's clothes to handmade jewellery.
UpMarket's famous food area, with cottage-industry style passionate caterers creating home-to-market food has already found a huge fan base. Ethiopian hand roasted coffee, Turkish specialties, lovely Moroccan dishes, Spanish Paellas and Empanadas, hand-rolled Sushi (freshly prepared to order), Japanese sweets and savoury pancakes, Carrom Cafe's Lassi, Chai and Indian Street Snacks, Thai food and Caribbean sea bass and fried plantain sandwiches'... It's a long list!
The Backyard Market opened its doors in the Spring of 2007 as London's newest and brightest market, offering something askew from younger creatives orientated in arts and crafts, and now includes a great selection of retro homewares and vintage items, wholesome home-made food, and an abundance of other backyard treasures.

SPECIAL PROJECTS
The Old Truman Brewery has a history of supporting and facilitating artists and designers. Initially, this was with a view to showcasing the Old Truman Brewery as a major creative venue as well as providing young, up and coming talent with the chance to perform in an established venue on an international level. Now these special projects very much push themselves forward under their own momentum...
FASHION EAST
Fashion East is a project set up by Lulu Kennedy at the Old Truman Brewery to champion new talent in the world of fashion. Founded in September 2000, this independent, non-profit programme provides sponsorship and support for young fashion designers.
Each season Fashion East, supported by Top Shop, gives three designers (chosen by a high-profile industry panel) the chance to present a catwalk collection on-schedule at London Fashion Week. Over the years Fashion East has debuted sensational collections by such names as Jonathan Saunders, House of Jazz, Jens Laugesen, Blaak and Emma Cook.
Fashion East has an excellent reputation for helping to bring new talent to the industry's attention, and is now established as one of the hottest tickets in London Fashion Week.

FREE-RANGE
Free Range is the unique graduate art & design festival set in the Old Truman Brewery. This annual Summer event showcases the work of art and design universities and colleges from all over the UK, bringing the nation's new talent together in a festival of over 50 exhibitions. Running over eight weeks, the project crams the host of weekly exhibitions into several venues, making it the premier recruiting ground for emerging talent. Each participating college selects one of the Old Truman Brewery's exhibition spaces where they create their own individual show as part of the overall collection of exhibitions. Free Range is the place to find that future collectible and the hottest new creatives.
Our Mission:
Free Range has been set up by Tamsin O'Hanlon at the Old Truman Brewery to provide up and coming creative talent with the opportunity to showcase their work on a national level, benefiting from the critical mass of over fifty exhibitions and the thousands of visitors passing through the Old Truman Brewery's doors. A primary focus continues to be to attract more industry, ensuring that students have the best possible chance of finding the right jobs as a direct result of exhibiting at Free Range. Free Range is therefore geared not only to provide an outlet for the viewing and exhibiting of the work in the traditional sense, but also to provide a commercial platform for the exhibitors.
