Event Information

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 regions 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.

Social distancing measures will be in place and all visitors are strongly urged to wear a face mask.
