Located in the quintessentially English South Downs, Firle Vintage Fair celebrates the beauty and antiquities of the past.
ON site there will be a host of cherry-picked antique and vintage stalls including; French brocante, haberdashery and latest crafting trends, Danish design, fashion, country interiors and gardenalia, plus original 1880 Victoriana fair-rides and Croquet games to have a whirl on.
Complementing the countryside location this year there will be rocking horse workshops, and talks on keeping bees, with local beekeepers bringing wildflower and herb infused honey to taste.
Special guest this year is the Charleston Trust who are coming to offer decorative upcycling workshops and talks on the Bloomsbury set.
For foodies they will be serving up the very best artisan street food and beverages with Iced Sloe Gins and a Champagne bar on the lawns in front of Firle Place.
A new addition this year The Food Emporium will host an array of artisan producers and specialty bakers.
The pavilion stage will feature a lineup of live swing jazz bands, solo artists, the Windups spinning original vinyl to the Gatsby Girls, Savoy Kicks and Lindy Hop troupes, as well as the latest fashion trends of handpicked vintage and Bespoke Couture.
For motor enthusiasts, the 15th Century Grand Manor at Firle Place will be the back-drop for the shiny bonnets of the Firle Vintage car motor show.
Dust off your tea dresses, braces and brogues, hop on your bicycle or the vintage double-decker Route master bus to join everyone at Firle and step back in time in style!
