The event is organised by RTS Zines, a non-profit collective that has been running zine fairs in Brighton for over a decade. The focus here is on the DIY spirit, with over 20 stallholders expected to be present. You will find a mix of alternative and small-press zines, including publications from the organisers themselves, such as issues 01, 02, and 03 of Aghh! Zine. The organisers have noted that the event aims to raise funds for local migrant solidarity charities, which provides some context on the community aspect of the gathering.
Regarding the logistics, the venue is located at Rose Hill Terrace, Brighton and Hove, BN1 4JL. Entry to the fair is £2.50. While there is an option to purchase tickets online, the organisers have specified that you can also pay at the door on the day. There are no specific performances or guest artists scheduled, as the primary purpose of the afternoon is simply to facilitate the exchange and sale of zines. It is a quiet, focused space for anyone interested in independent publishing or just seeing what local creators are working on at the moment.
