Islington Boot Fair
Islington Boot Fair is a family-run vintage market in N1, Islington, at the heart of the canals and King’s Cross.
It’s a family-friendly market home to preloved and vintage fashion, independent sellers, and a growing community of traders and shoppers who value unique finds and sustainable shopping.
The Boot Fair believes in giving great items a second life. The market is built around sustainability, affordability, and community, creating a space where preloved fashion and independent businesses can thrive together.
Visitors are welcome to walk in from 9am, with entry priced at £2. The market runs until 4pm, so come early for the best vintage finds!
Alongside preloved and vintage fashion stalls, you’ll also find a selection of food and drink vendors, making it a full day out for all ages.
Every other Sunday starting on 26 July, 9am-4pm
Victoria Primary School, Treaty Street, Islington, N1 0WF
