Sunday 24 June 2012
The Merchant Adventurers' Hall
Established in March 2011 York Does Vintage is a truly fantastic, sparkling shopping event bringing you gorgeous vintage goodies, gems and bargains, a bustling vintage tearoom, lots of live music, hair and makeup girlies, nail and mini treatments bar, York's Clothes Swap and various workshops to get involved in! York Does Vintage is not just a fair - but a crazy, bustling, vibrant event for both the young and old!

What with the Jubilee and Olympics this summer, what's better than a real British day out?! Think strawberry's and cream, Union jacks, competitions and much much more! We're proud to be British - are you?

For 2012 we have taken York Does Vintage over to the grade 1 listed and scheduled ancient monument (drum roll please....) The (spectacular) Merchant Adventurers Hall of York. We couldn't think of anywhere better to capture and celebrate fashion and trends from yesteryear than in this truly gorgeous, history infused, stunning timber framed Hall - featured in the top attractions York has to offer on Trip Advisor!

There really is no need to look any further for the best vintage day out around, as bargains start as soon as you step through the creaky 1300's door, with a very affordable £1 entry, plus you will be helping us once again support 2 very worthy local charities - The Alzheimer's Society and SNAPPY's children charity.

We look forward to seeing you there!
