The fair opens to buyers on Tuesday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and on Wednesday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Buyer entry is £20 on Tuesday or £5 on Wednesday (a Tuesday ticket also covers Wednesday). Sellers arrive early — from 5:00 AM Tuesday — with outside pitches from £155 and inside tables from £190; book your pitch through the organiser in advance.
With a mix of both indoor and outdoor stalls, there is plenty to browse whatever the weather, plus on-site parking, toilets and refreshments. Dogs are welcome, and many local small-business traders set up here, so it is a great place to source quality antiques and support independent sellers.
