So it’s the 6th year of York Does Vintage – how did that happen?!
The first fair of the season is always a great day – a lovely excuse to blow the cobwebs away, brave the winter and have a fun day with family and friends!
Expect the Merchant Adventurers’ Hall to be full with a vast array of stunning, handpicked vintage. Shoppers can spend their day at the vintage tearoom nattering to friends and family, get glammed up in the vintage beauty bar which represents everything glamorous and special from the fabulous 20s flapper to the sweetheart 50s and beehive bouffant 60s, or even tap your feet to our vintage acts on the day – whether they be a classic Andrew Sisters trio, funky rockabilly bands or even up-beat bands mixing old with new.
The idea of purveying vintage items and immersing yourself in forgotten traditions, trades, experiences and ways of life seems to tie in perfectly with York’s historic background and adds another dimension to tourists looking for culture, history and bespoke attractions – features which York has become very well known for.
What better way to immerse yourself in vintage than visiting one of Britain Does Vintage’s most popular events, set in the 14th Century Merchant Adventurers’ Hall, a building which symbolises York’s colourful past. Expect this fair to be full of vintage stalls representing everything which was great about past era’s, all the way from the 1920s up to the 80s.
