Get ready to rewind the decades as Stalybridge Civic Hall opens its doors to the So Retro Vintage & Vinyl Fair on Sunday 2nd November, from 11am to 4pm.
Promising a vibrant mix of nostalgia, music, and timeless style, the event is set to be a treat for vintage enthusiasts, vinyl collectors, and anyone looking for a day out with a difference.
With over 25 specialist traders, the fair will be brimming with treasures from bygone eras, including retro homeware, furniture, clothing, jewellery, accessories, and vinyl records. Whether you’re hunting for a unique Christmas gift or that perfect piece to complete your vintage collection, you’re sure to find something special.
Visitors can also indulge in a variety of refreshments while browsing. Enjoy homemade sweet treats, grab a cup of barista-style coffee, or unwind with a drink from the vintage bar, serving craft beers, wines, and cocktails.
The venue itself is part of the attraction. Stalybridge Civic Hall, which has recently undergone refurbishment, provides a stunning backdrop for the event, featuring original architectural details such as a glass roof, elegant beams and pillars, and a classic stone floor making it the perfect setting for a celebration of all things vintage.
“We’re thrilled to bring this eclectic mix of vintage shopping to Stalybridge,” says Michelle Barratt, founder of So Retro Events. “The building is incredible, and I can’t wait to see it filled with vintage stalls. We’ve got so many fantastic traders coming along - if you’re a vintage lover, you won’t want to miss it!”
Tickets are £2 on the door and can be bought in cash or on card.
