See following for some of our great exhibitors.

Tom Westra:

"Since 1996, I have been working on designing, creating and selling contemporary metal furniture and sculpture. I found forging of hot steel enables me to directly take a thought or concept and bring it to life. Experimenting with the shaping of steel and discovering its creative possibilities has been exciting and has lead to a large self taught knowledge base.

My main body of work has been the creation of forged steel lizards. The lizard theme allows me to work with dynamic organic shapes in three dimensions resulting in a variety of expressions each instilled with life and movement.

Commissioned work is also welcome. I can work closely with customers needs to complete any form of metalwork."

If you did not have a stall at Ironfest last year, preference goes to the quality, uniqueness, value for money, of product; quality of service; hygene standards, presentation & professionalism.

Ironfest is famous for the quality & diversity of the food available at the festival.
Each year there is a real focus on improving the range of different types of food available,
from gourmet coffee to traditional cuisine.

Another aspect we are working on is presentation.
For the past few years now there has been a push for all caterers to use recyclables.
In the future preference will go to those caterers who do the best job in this area.
