Anathema
Who we are
Anathema Emporium hosts curated Witch Markets in Bournemouth, Dorset, bringing together independent artisan makers of handmade, alternative and esoteric goods. Held in the historic Royal Arcade, our markets showcase a unique mix of witchcraft-inspired creations including herbal apothecary, crystals, candles, gothic art, jewellery, textiles, taxidermy, oddities, and handcrafted curiosities. These popular Dorset craft markets attract visitors seeking something different, from spiritual and pagan supplies to high-quality handmade gifts. We also feature tarot readers, holistic practitioners, and seasonal themed events throughout the year including Ostara, Beltane, Lammas and Samhain celebrations. Anathema is a modern revival of Boscombe’s Victorian curiosity and fortune-telling culture, creating a welcoming space for creativity, community and the magical.
