South East

The South East has one of the busiest car boot scenes in the country, and we list 36 sales spread across Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire and Oxfordshire. From sprawling Sunday giants to small farm field fairs, there is something running most weekends of the year, with the season at its fullest from spring through autumn.

In Kent you will find long-running favourites like the Hop Farm Boot Fair, Leysdown and Brenzett bootfairs, plus Ashford and Faversham markets. Surrey sellers head to the Hook Road car boot, Shepperton and the renowned Sunbury Antiques Market at Kempton, while Sussex has the famous Ardingly Showground Sunday sale and seaside pitches at Pevensey Bay. Hampshire shoppers can try Bordon, Titchfield and Bridgemary, and there are Berkshire and Oxfordshire fields at Moss End, Taplow and Finmere too.

Most car boot sales in the South East run on Sundays, though several open Saturdays and midweek. Arrive early for the best bargains, wear sturdy shoes for grassy fields after rain, and use the search above to find a sale by town or postcode.
