Torre Abbey Café is currently closed while our staff are working hard to clean and re-equip the Café.

The Café will re-open as soon as possible - we are able to offer a reduced range of refreshments in our shop in the meantime.

Stallholder Call Out for Winter Fest 2019

This Christmas, Torre Abbey will be hosting its third Winter Fest event in the historic setting of the museum on Saturday 30 November and Sunday 1 December.

We are now looking for local artists and makers to join us, selling some truly unique Christmas gifts.

This promises to be charming event in the heart of Torquay and the perfect opportunity to dig out those Christmas jumpers and hats and get into the Winter Fest spirit.

The event will run from 10am till 5pm on both days. Entry is just £2 per person, which includes entry to the Abbey. 

Call out for Stallholders!

We are currently taking applications from stall holders who have high quality traditional or contemporary gifts to sell. Stalls cost just £30 for the 2 days.

To apply, please just drop us an email telling us a bit about you, don’t forget to include links to your website or selling pages. Please note that we will not be allocating spaces until after 31st May so that we can look at all the applications together. Also bear in mind that priority will be given to stalls with fewer bought in items, this doesn’t mean you can’t sell these – it just means the more handmade items the better. Payment for stalls will not be required until you are offered a space. All stallholders are required to have their own public liability insurance and this will need to be seen prior to the event.

Please send emails to arts@torbay.gov.uk no later than 31st May
