Europe's largest thrift festival with over 100 vintage and streetwear sellers, a free clothes swap, alterations and giveaways at Victoria Baths.
Clothes Cycle is taking over Victoria Baths on Sunday 25 October, from 11am to 5pm. It's billed as Europe's largest thrift festival, and the numbers back it up: more than 100 sellers bringing together pre-loved vintage, Y2K goodies and streetwear. If you're into the second-hand scene, that's a lot of ground to cover in one go, with everything from old-school vintage to the early-aughts stuff that's come back around.
There's more to it than just the stalls, though. There's a free clothes swap, so you can bring in things you've outgrown and trade them for something new. Clothing alterations are on hand too, which is handy if you find something you love that doesn't quite fit. Beyond that, they're doing tooth gems, designer giveaways and tote bags, so it's a bit of a full day out rather than just a quick browse.

It's at Victoria Baths on Hathersage Road, M13 0FE. The pricing changes depending on when you show up: it's £7.50 if you turn up early to get first pick of the best bits, and it drops to £2 for the last hour if you're just after a bargain. Open 11am to 5pm, Sunday 25 October.
