Record Fair: Your Vinyl Collecting Adventure Awaits

If you’re looking to expand your vinyl collection or just enjoy the satisfying process of digging through crates, mark your calendar for Sunday, February 1st. The Record Fair is returning to Komedia Brighton, which, as we know, is a staple of the city's independent entertainment scene. It runs from 10:00 AM until 4:00 PM, giving you plenty of time to browse, and the best part is that entry is completely free. You can find Komedia easily at 44-47 Gardner Street, right in the heart of the North Laine area.

This isn't just a small pop-up; the fair promises thousands of vinyl bargains and collector's items. It’s the perfect opportunity to hunt down that specific album you’ve been missing or stumble upon new sounds you didn't know you needed. The event brings together specialist vendors, ensuring a good variety of genres and rarities for both seasoned collectors and those just starting out. The focus is purely on the music, offering a great chance to find the records you love and discover something new.

For those who appreciate the context of these local events, the Record Fair is a regular fixture at Komedia. If you can't make the February date, they have others lined up throughout 2026, including April 5th, June 7th, August 2nd, October 4th, and December 6th, all opening at 10:00 AM. Looking back at previous fairs gives you an idea of the quality of vendors involved; we’ve seen names like The Record Album, Geoff Finch, and local labels such as Jalapeno and Tru Thoughts participating. Occasionally, the event includes extra elements, such as live streaming with Slack City Radio, adding a bit more atmosphere to the day. It’s a solid, reliable event for anyone serious about their music collection.
