Event Information

Face mask wearing is no longer compulsory, however Government advice is to continue the wearing of masks in enclosed or crowded places.

Located in the historic centre of Bury, the hall is a stones throw from the much-photographed Abbey Gate, the award winning Abbey Gardens and the Cathedral.

The fair is held on a Saturday when the region’s largest traditional outdoor market takes over the streets, so there's plenty to do and see if you have any time left after perusing the wide range of books, maps and ephemera on offer at the fair.
