London's Biggest Record Fair

London's Biggest Record Fair returns to The Royal Horticultural Halls on Saturday 28 November, taking over both Lindley Hall and Lawrence Hall at 80 Vincent Square, SW1P 2PB. It's presented by VIP Record Fairs Limited, and as the name suggests, it's one of the larger gatherings of its kind in the city, with hundreds of sellers under one roof.

The stock runs across a wide range of genres, from dance, hip hop and soul to rock, indie and pop, so you'll find plenty to dig through regardless of what you're into. It's not just vinyl, either — CDs and memorabilia are in the mix, and the day is as much about bartering as it is about buying. You'll find professional dealers alongside locals clearing out their own collections, which means the crates hold everything from curated finds to the kind of random, deep-cut discoveries that only happen when someone's emptying their shelves.

It runs from 10am to 4:30pm, and there are two ways to get in. Entry is £6 from 12 noon, but if you want to be there when the doors first open, early entry is £12 from 10am. If you're after something specific and want first pick of the crates, that early start is the way to go; otherwise, the midday entry gets you in for the bulk of the day.
