Stonham Barns Sunday Car Boot & the Saxon and Viking Festival on September 14th 2025A great crowd on Sunday with over 180 sellers. This weekend we have the second of 5 weeks of Car Boots with shows running at the same time. This Sunday is the Saxon & Viking Festival so a great crowd expected and more good weather. The week after we have The American Car Show.
Each week more and more are choosing the Car Boot because there is so much more than just the Car Boot going on and the atmosphere is unlike any other. Come & see and find out.
Covered stalls are available for any Sunday/Bank Holiday but hurry up as these will go quickly so text early to book one of the 20. The Covered stalls offer a guaranteed spot on the main field close to food and toilets, have an overhead cover offering shade plus a table-top and are only £13. Text 07817539168 to reserve one, Everyone else can just turn up on the day and sell from £7.
The Thursday Car Boot has stopped for the year. We will be re-opening again in 2026 with a later start. We will fully advertise starting dates and try and hit the crowd running. Sundays will run till the end of October and weather pending after that.
Expecting a big crowd Sunday as usual. Covered stalls are available and offering shade/protection text 07817539168 to reserve one.
If you follow updates on facebook.com/stonhambarnscarboot I announce if we are open on Sundays or just text/call me 0781753968 although the fields have been bone dry and desperately needed recent rain.
But despite all of this Crowds have been excellent and we have a good run of shows on as well.
Events run at the same time as the Car Boot so a bigger crowd always expected. We have the Saxon & Viking Festival on the 14th September 2025 followed by The American Car Show on the 21st September 2025 followed by Swedefest on the 28th September 2025 followed by The Land Rover Show on the 5th October 2025.
So come & enjoy the special atmosphere at Stonham Barns Sunday Car Boot. It’s unlike all other car boots, full of amazing bargains and is the friendliest in Suffolk.
As usual no booking is needed to sell at the Car Boot so just turn up on the day.
Sundays - Needing to leave early. Pay the food van or me with the yellow top on (Simon).
New Prices for 2025 are as below:
The Gazebos are now charged plus you can choose to take extra space but it means an extra cost - the equivalent of paying as if you have a trailer on the back (or 2 cars space - £10 for a car for example).
Cars £7, Small Vans £8.50 (still), Cars with trailers £10, Small Vans with trailers £11.50, Large Vans £13, Large Vans with Trailers £16, Cars with Gazebos £10, Covered stalls £13, Huge Vans £16. I do charge £8.50 for large cars with pick ups on back. Thursdays all vehicles £7 no space restrictions.
Come & sell at the Car Boot from only £7 or buy for FREE.
We are still the best priced on Sundays & still the friendliest Car Boot in Suffolk so come & sell from only £7 (all vehicles) and still free parking & buying & everyone welcome to just turn up and have a look around as there’s so much to do at Stonham.
I've had a few questions about when we actually start. We always used to start at 8am and most people do still turn up at 8/8.30 but, we do get people arriving stupidly early onwards. So, it's really up to you. 7 onwards is sensible. We have enough space for everyone. Earliest arrival is from 5.30am but most sensible turn up from 7am. ON THURSDAY it’s 6AM for earliest arrivals.
We now have a licence allowing all Plant/Bulb Sellers or in fact any Gardening sellers to sell at the Car Boot. So NO RESTRICTIONS at all with any Gardening items. This is great news as I've had to turn so many people away. This is already bringing in a lot more sellers/buyers to Stonham. So, come and sell every Sunday. We are expecting some of the big plant and bulb sellers to start selling soon.
The Covered stalls are unique - these offer some shade to sellers as well as a tabletop & protection against wind & rain. These guarantee a main field position near to toilets and food/drinks. You pull behind them, set up and sell and pack up and leave at the end of the day.
Everyone else wishing to sell at Stonham can just turn up on the day. So you can just turn up from 7am and sell and that’s every Sunday & Bank Holiday Mondays from March to October & now Thursdays too. We are also lucky to benefit from regular events at Stonham where the Car Boot crowd is often doubled & that’s on top of a very big buying crowd.
Everyone loves Stonham as its unbeatable when the weather is good. It has a great atmosphere and a knowledgeable friendly crowd made up of all ages. Families young and old, dog friendly and it caters for the disabled.
We let Buyers in at the same time as sellers but – please allow me to get everyone into position so please don’t hinder this and please don’t stand behind cars whilst they unload. No one is going to jump in and buy before you as it just isn’t that kind of car boot. The reason we have become so popular is because we don’t have people harassing sellers. If anyone oversteps their mark we will stop buyers entering the field until gone 7am.
We are outdoors only but offer covered stalls.
Stonham Barns Car Boot every Sunday & Bank Holiday Mondays and Thursdays too.
