About The Blackheart Market Dunfermline
The Blackheart Market is Scotland’s ultimate pop-up event for horror and alternative fans. We are bringing the dark side to the Kingsgate Shopping Centre in Dunfermline.
Mainstream shops do not cater to the alternative community. Therefore, we created a space just for you. This event is a huge highlight in the What’s On Fife calendar. Better yet, entry is completely free. This makes it the perfect day out for goths, metalheads, and horror lovers.
What to expect at the alternative market:
- First, Dark Art: Meet incredible independent artists. Shop for horror prints, macabre stickers, and original canvases.
- Next, Curiosities: Hunt for the unusual. We host the best traders for taxidermy, wet specimens, and animal bones.
- Also, Goth Fashion: Upgrade your wardrobe. Find alternative clothing, metal band patches, witchy jewellery, and accessories.
- Finally, Collectibles: Search for rare items. Traders will be selling horror movie props, crystals, and vintage gothic homeware.
