Organised by VIP Record Fairs, a major music market is coming to Norwich in Norfolk this Saturday, February 7, 2026. The event will take place at The Forum on Millennium Plain, where sellers from across the country will offer thousands of vinyl records, CDs and music memorabilia to local collectors.
For more than four decades the fair was held at St Andrew’s and Blackfriars Halls (The Halls), but it moved to The Forum after The Halls closed for a multi‑million‑pound refurbishment (reported at around £3.6m). VIP Record Fairs and The Forum say the move has been well received and gives the market higher visibility in the city centre.
People looking for a bargain can enter the fair for a £3 fee from 10:00am, while those wanting first pick can pay £6 for early access at 9:00am. Sellers at the event often specialise in particular genres — from punk and soul to jazz and prog — and offer rare pressings and items typically not available on the high street.
The market is expected to run until about 3:30pm, giving residents the chance to browse through crates of music ranging from £1 bargains to rare collectors’ items. VIP Record Fairs and The Forum list several Norwich dates across the year, making this February date one of a number of planned visits to the city.
