School’s out for summer, which means it’s time for another Vintage Market at the Mansion!
50 great vintage traders from across London, the south east and further afield, will be gathered in Beckenham Place Park with more wonderful things to discover and buy.
Inside and around the Mansion you’ll find mid 20th century and vintage furniture, lighting and interior decoration, homeware, original posters, prints, antique maps and charts, books, records, French brocante, salvage, vintage clothes (including for children), and more.
Most traders take card payments, and will deliver locally if you want to buy something big, like a dining table!
There’ll be a coffee van and brownie stall outside, to keep you enegised!
If you love food markets as well as vintage ones then you’re in luck, as alongside us outside will be the wonderful Beckenham Place Park Food Market with around fifteen stalls and delicious hot food.
In addition, the excellent Mansion Bar and Cafe will be serving draft beer, hot and cold drinks, and snacks.
The brilliant Alvar Treefrogs, will be with us again, busking with New Orleans jazz on the grass at the back of the Mansion.
