It is the sixth Treacle Market of the year, and temperatures are set to be 18 degrees Celsius.
Here's what you can expect from Macclesfield's artisan market for Sunday 26 June.
From 10am to 3:30pm you can expect the following:
Local music will be celebrated for this month's market. Macclesfield ladies choir The Caravanettes will be followed by AZ Aloud - a choir of Macclesfield AstraZeneca staff. Local ladies and Treacle regulars Annie's Saints and Sinners will also perform.
Foodwise, Cheddleton Oatcakes are back after a few month hiatus, with their Kermit-clad van and Joy Division-wearing staff.
"The vast majority of regulars are back," said Treacle Market Co-Organiser Becky Thompson.
"New stalls are RAWR, who do recycled kitchen and homeware products. They are recycled from the waste of Jamie Savage's mussels from The Picturedrome.
"They did a guest slot on another vendors stall last month, but it did so well they are coming on their own this time.
"A new food stall is Cheshire's Buntzel Bakery, who offer a hybrid sandwich between a bun and a pretzel. They will be on Exchange Street."
"A bottled botanical stall will also return after their debut last month, with a bigger and better presence."
The Old Butter Market is not in use for this month only. Traders will be relocated to the front of the Town Hall.
Jimmyscissors Mobile Barber and Gingers Ice Cream van will still be outside The Old Butter Market entrance.
Unicorn Gateway will also not be in use this time.
The mobile bar will also be absent, but Treacle Market organisers encourage visitors to use nearby independent bars such as Five Clouds, R&G's Beer Vault on Market Place and others.
"Last Treacle was the busiest Treacle Market we've done so far," added Becky.
"Thank you everyone for your support. The good weather certainly helped!"
The Treacle Market has been running in our town since 2010.
It was co-founded by Jane Munro, who passed on organisation duties to Macclesfield Central couple Becky and Andy Thompson.
