UK – Royal Berkshire Militaria Fair

The Royal Berkshire Militaria Fair was a new one for 2022 but they are going strong in 2023 with a good few dates for your calendar. This is a regular recurring fair, so if you live nearby, this is definitely one for your calendar. Held in Sindlesham Court. The fair itself is indoors, with heating – which is very convenient for the colder winter months – as well as great lighting to see and examine the finer items for sale. The hall has a disabled entrance, as well as toilet facilities. And there is enough parking for 200 cars.

Traders will be supplied tables as well as up to 2 chairs. A 6ft space costs £45 but if you book 4 or more, the price comes down to £40 each. Dealer set up starts at 7am, with doors open to the public at 9am and the fair ends at 1pm.

Entry fees start at £6 for the keen collector entrance at 9am. From 10am onwards the price is £4. (Under 14s go in for free.) Please note that payment is only possible with cash.

There is a café on site, which serves coffee, tea, and of course sausage baps, so you can even enjoy your breakfast/lunch at the fair.
