One Love Festival Cyprus Lists Eight Makers for Its 2026 Market

One Love Festival Cyprus runs from 29 July to 2 August 2026 at Val’s Place in Yiallia, near Polis Chrysochous in Paphos district. Its official arts-and-crafts page now names eight participating makers, giving the festival’s market a clearer identity than a general promise of handmade goods.

It remains a market inside a five-day reggae, wellbeing and camping festival, not a separate collectors’ event. No official description mentions anime merchandise, manga, fan art or 3D-printed work. Its relevance lies in the opportunity to see small independent makers trading directly with a broader Cyprus festival audience.

A market inside a five-day festival

The overall event listing begins at 10:00 on Wednesday 29 July and ends at 20:00 on Sunday 2 August. Those are festival boundaries, not published market hours.

The programme has two phases. A wellbeing and camping experience occupies 29 and 30 July, followed by the music festival from 31 July to 2 August. The arts-and-crafts market appears among the areas inside the site, alongside stages, workshops, camping and food facilities. It is not presented as a separately timed or separately ticketed event.

The eight makers currently listed

As of 22 July, the official market page names the following businesses. The descriptions are supplied by the organiser and should not be read as independent product reviews:

• Indiana: accessories incorporating stones and nature-inspired elements.
• Keris Candles & Crafts: scented candles in handmade pots and diamond-art pieces.
• Forest of Dreams: dreamcatchers and jewellery described as using sustainable materials.
• Chaotic ResinArt: resin jewellery, decorations, stationery, cups and trays.
• Full Metall Badger: stainless-steel chainmail jewellery handmade in Cyprus.
• Wrap Wild: hair wraps, dreadlock decorations and hair accessories.
• Happily Ever Crafter: upcycled and natural-material crafts with mystical and nature-led themes.
• Creative art: textile painting and handmade polymer-clay cups and earrings.

The selection leans towards wearable objects, home crafts and alternative aesthetics. It is closer to a compact handmade market than a convention-style Artists’ Alley, and the people attending may primarily be there for music, wellbeing or camping rather than collecting.

What I hope to find

I am keeping the search deliberately broad rather than choosing one maker in advance. I would like to find a small object made from reclaimed or recycled material, particularly something where the reuse is visible in the finished piece. That would make the market visit less about finding familiar merchandise and more about seeing what a maker can turn an overlooked material into.

Tickets do not yet answer the market question

Adult admission without camping is listed at €58 plus VAT for the three-day music festival and €88 plus VAT for all five days. Adult day passes are available for Friday at €20 plus VAT, Saturday at €30 plus VAT and Sunday at €15 plus VAT. Children under 13 are included at no charge in the main ticket products; the separately programmed Kids Zone costs €8 plus VAT and requires parental or guardian supervision.

There is no standalone market ticket. More importantly, the official pages do not state which days or hours the eight makers will trade, or whether every maker will be present throughout the festival. Someone considering a trip specifically for the market should ask the organiser before choosing a day pass.

What remains unconfirmed

The public pages do not specify market opening hours, final stall count, product prices, payment methods or whether the current maker list is complete. The application page continues to show an arts-and-crafts form but gives no public deadline, stall fee or indication of remaining capacity.

Those missing details are material for both visitors and possible participants. The confirmed list establishes that a real market is planned; it does not yet establish when to visit it or what each stall will have in stock.
