GET ready to step back in time as So Retro Vintage Fair arrives at Walton Hall and Gardens next month.
The special celebration of all things retro on Father’s Day – Sunday, June 16 – promises to be a treasure trove of vintage clothing, accessories and ceramics as well as glassware, furniture and vinyl records.
There will be something for everyone but as it’s Father Day, the event will have more retro menswear and a classic car show.
From the roaring 20s flapper dresses to the groovy 70s bell bottoms, the So Retro fair offers a unique opportunity to shop rare and authentic pieces that are timeless as well as beautiful.
Beyond the shopping, there will be live music from vintage trio The Blondies in Harmony who will bring a mix of 1940s and 1950s classic hits.
Walton Hall and Gardens will host the event on Father's Day (June 16)
The fair, which was founded by Manchester mum and entrepreneur Michelle Barratt, has just celebrated its first year in business.
Michelle said: “I wanted to create an event in the north west where people could connect over their love for vintage culture and history.
“It’s more than just a fair - it’s a vibrant community celebration that invites everyone to experience and appreciate the charm and nostalgia of past decades.”
The fair also supports local businesses and promotes sustainable shopping practices, making it a win-win for the community and the environment.
Doors open at 11am and entry is free.
