All-ages retro football shirt fair with specialist sellers, held over the Black Friday weekend in partnership with Notts County.
Retro Football Fair comes to The Nest on Sunday 29 November, its first time in Nottingham. It's the final fair of 2026, held over the Black Friday weekend, and it's put on in partnership with Notts County, so there'll be thousands of shirts on offer.
If you're not familiar, the fair has spent seven years at the forefront of the UK's football shirt market. It's built a reputation as a trusted platform that brings together the country's best specialist sellers alongside fans of the game and its cultural heritage. The whole thing is an inclusive, all-ages day that leans as much on the social side of collecting as on the stock itself, so it's as much about chatting with other fans as it is about the hunt for a specific shirt.
That partnership with Notts County is a nice touch for a first Nottingham outing, and with thousands of shirts on the tables, there's plenty to dig through. It's the kind of event where you can spend an hour or the whole day, and since it's all-ages, it's easy to bring the family along. If you've got a particular era or club you're after, this is your best bet for finding it in one place.
