Blackheart Market Falkirk: Howgate Shopping Centre


Blackheart Market Falkirk event is bringing the dark side back to the town centre! We are beyond excited to return to the Howgate Shopping Centre on Saturday 15th August for another massive alternative takeover. To put it simply, if you have a passion for horror, goth culture, or hunting for unique curiosities, this is the one date for your summer diary you won’t want to miss.

What to Expect at Blackheart Market Falkirk


The atmosphere in the Howgate is always electric during our takeovers. This means visitors to Blackheart Market Falkirk can browse through hundreds of unique items from our incredible makers, including:

Dark Art and Original Prints: Macabre illustrations, spooky canvas prints, and alternative gothic designs.
Alternative Fashion and Jewellery: Unique apparel, handmade accessories, and gothic style statements.
Strange Curiosities and Spooky Decor: From ethical taxidermy and crystal crafts to custom horror-themed candles and home decorations.
Usually, our events attract a fantastic community of like-minded fans, making it a great place to meet fellow goths, metalheads, and alternative shoppers.

A Low-Cost Day Out at Blackheart Market


Aside from the incredible shopping, our event is a full celebration of all things unusual. Because entry to Blackheart Market Falkirk is completely free, it makes for the perfect low-cost weekend day out.

Moreover, the Howgate Shopping Centre is right in the town centre on the High Street, so you are surrounded by great local cafes and amenities to turn your shopping trip into a full day out with your coven.

Notably, our trader tables tend to fill up fast because the local community is so supportive of the alternative scene. Therefore, we recommend coming down early to get first pick of the one-off items on display. We look forward to seeing you all there this August… if you dare!
