Secrets of the Summer Solstice

Source
The Summer Solstice is here and on the longest day we bring you (after a long wait) the revelation of the secret location of the next Secret Vintage Fair.  It is to be held at Ipswich Masonic Hall, Soane Street, Ipswich, IP4 2BG, opposite the entrance to Christchurch Park. The building is, in keeping with all our fairs, full of character and heritage,within easy access from the town .
Not only do we have the finest vintage, retro and craft purveyors over two floors; the day will also include a full programme of live music from the acapella five-piece The TestostaTones, to the Uke Lady and the gypsy jazz duo Maroc du Monde and a mentalism act, plus the vintage DJ extraodinaire- DJ Sukie. As with all Secret Vintage events we have a vintage tea parlour, this time provided by Tilly's Vintage Tea's.

The Secret Vintage Fair takes place on Saturday 29 June 10.00 - 16.00. 

Entrance is only £1.50, and accompanied children under 10 get in free. 
We are supporting St Elizabeth Hospice, via a proportion of door taking and the raffle prizes . 
(see the album on Facebook for an amazing selection of prizes available- with more being added daily). Delicious homemade refreshments will be available all day from the Secret Vintage Pop Up Tea Parlour and the first 25 people through the door get a VIP goody bag including vintage and handmade goodies from our traders.

Narrowing it down..

We are so excited to be taking The Secret Vintage Fair further afield to the Essex/Suffolk borders on Saturday 29 June that we can't resist revealing just a little part of the secret... so we can tell you that it is taking place in Colchester's near neighbour just across the border- Ipswich.
We are incredibly excited to be heading to Ipswich: a town full of history, vintage and beautiful buildings.  As always we are supporting a charity with a proportion of door proceeds, and we have chosen St Elizabeth Hospice. St Elizabeth Hospice improves life for people living with a progressive illness, as well as their friends, families and carers. A full post on the work of St Elizabeth Hospice do will follow in the coming weeks.

The traders applications are in, the posters are coming hot off the press and the entertainment is in the pipeline, and we now look forward to bringing Ipswich our unique recipe for vintage fairs very soon!  Now we've narrowed the area- can you guess the venue?  One more clue- we are always central and always in a appropriate building for a vintage fair. Happy guessing!

The Secret Vintage Fair takes place on Saturday 29th June, 10.00 - 16.00. Entrance is only £1.50, and accompanied children under 10 get in free.  The Secret location details will be revealed on Friday 21st June via the Facebook page, Twitter and the website. Media Partner: Grapevine MagazineCharity: St Elizabeth Hospice.

Please join the event on Facebook here for regular updates in your news feed, and look out for more news on the Colchester fair on 27th July coming soon.  Applications for stallholders at the Ipswich fair are now CLOSED and we will inform successful applicants next week, applications for the Colchester fair will be going out by the end of next week.
