We are very happy to again work with The National Trust at Petworth House as well as with the local dealer association PAADA and the Petworth Business Association, creating yet another exciting event. The grand 17th century house boasts an internationally important art collection, and together with its 'Capability' Brown landscaped country park, it provides a magnificent backdrop for our annual fair.
The fair has its own free car park by the marquee - access is from the A272 Tillington Road through the gate at New Lodges. The AA signs will direct traffic to this entrance and not to the main car park on the A283, where there is a charge of £4 for non-National Trust members. Disabled parking close to the fair entrance. The pedestrian entrance is via the Cricket Lodge gate, also on the A272, or via the Cowyard.
Fair visitors enjoy free access to Petworth House during the three day event. National Trust members and Petworth House ticket holders may attend the antiques fair free of charge.
Light refreshments are available in the restaurant inside the fair, operated by The Naked Food Company.
Dogs that can be carried and guide/assistance dogs are welcome.
For local information, including details of hotels, restaurants and things to do, please visit Discover Petworth.
Exhibitors
The fair is held in a purpose built marquee in the grounds of Petworth House, overlooking the Upper Pond. Access for vehicles is from the A272 Tillington Road through the gate at New Lodges.
Exhibitors are primarily drawn from The British Antique Dealers' Association and LAPADA The Association of Art & Antiques Dealers and the fair features both local dealers and specialists based further afield. The event is vetted for quality and correct attribution.
The marquee has space for 60 stand units. Catering is on offer within the fair and public conveniences are provided close to the marquee. Ample free parking is available in the park, near the fair entrance.
