Exeterfair

The Record & CD Fair in Exeter is a well established venue within the heart of Devon.

Originating at St Sidwell's church hall in 1980, when an average price for a rare record was £15, this fair has progressed over the years, and is now the main event for music collector's within the South West. In fact, due to many of the larger fairs elsewhere taking a set-back in more recent times with the advent of the internet, Exeter's Fair is now probably on par with most other similar events held up and down the country.

Happening approximately bi-monthly at the Corn Exchange (the new name for St George's Hall), within the center of Exeter, there is always a good cross-section of stock on offer; both in vinyl & compact disc. Everything from Rock 'n' Roll to Punk; Stones to Stereophonics, etc. Magazines, sheet music, & videos are also present, and now with DVD's creeping in!

The hall is well lit, having good lighting and large windows. The foyer is a quiet ~ relaxing area, with refreshments available, so one can rest a while in between scouring the dealer's boxes! Local shops pertaining to similar are all within a short waking distance.

Exeter itself has interesting features, such as the excellent Museum, the Underground Passages, and of course the Cathedral. A pleasurable walk can be enjoyed along the riverside, where, if one is feeling energetic, hiring a canoe or bicycle is an option... so, all in all, quite an interesting day out can be had by all.

Lost?

It's no use looking for PC Percy to get directions, as he's retired (Exeter has lost an institution!), so..
