Record Fair

Event Horizon are bringing their record fair to Loreto College on Saturday 5 December, from 10:00 to 15:00. It's one of those days where you can spend as little or as much time as you like, with the whole thing running through the morning and into the early afternoon.

The main draw is the vinyl and CDs, but there's more than just records on the tables. You'll find DVDs, music memorabilia and music books alongside the discs, so it works as much for someone hunting for a specific press as it does for someone just looking for a bit of music-related kit. The stall holders come from both ends of the trade: professional dealers with deep stock and people clearing out their own collections, which means you'll find a mix of curated finds and random treasures. If you've got a collection of your own that's getting a bit too big, you can book a table and run your own stall.

Because it's an indoor event, you can dig through the crates regardless of the weather, and the dealers buy, sell and trade on the day, so it's as much about swapping as it is about buying. It's set up for serious collectors and casual browsers alike, so there's no pressure to know exactly what you're after before you walk in.

Loreto College is on Hatfield Road in St Albans, AL1 3RQ, and you get in via Beaconsfield Road. Entry is free, and parking is free too, so you can take your time without worrying about the clock. It runs from 10:00 to 15:00 on Saturday 5 December.
