We can’t wait to bring So Last Century’s Winter Vintage Market at the Mansion back to Beckenham Place Park this December, with a festive event spread over two days!
Storm Darragh means we can’t have any outdoor traders as originally planned, so the Market will be indoors-only on both days this year
On Saturday and Sunday this stunning Georgian building will be filled with more than 25 vintage traders, across five rooms. You’ll love the thousands of unusual and unique things they’re bringing - our dealers are masters at creating amazing displays, and they never hold back at this time of year!
You can expect to find mid-century decor, lighting, furniture, ceramics and glass, homeware, records, original 1960s travel posters, prints, antique maps and charts, clothes and fashion for winter, and the party season …and lots more!
The snug Mansion Bar & Cafe will be open too, serving mulled wine and hot drinks and draught beer.
On Sunday, we hope the wonderful Beckenham Place Park Food and Farmer’s Market will be joining us.
Call in to KnowHowYou Sewing School on the Ground Floor of the Mansion and see the various classes and courses they have to offer. And don’t forget to have a rummage in the Verso Vintage shop in the basement
So put on your warmest coat and come along on Saturday or Sunday for lots of Christmas present inspiration, and an abundance of unusual and unique things to buy. Enjoy the beautiful park while you’re there!
