This spring, I Love North Shields is launching something new — a vintage market rooted in everyday heritage, local stories and creative reuse.
I Love North Shields Vintage Market | Handpicked. Reimagined. is a carefully curated event celebrating local vintage, antiques and objects with a past, alongside music, making, style and nostalgia that shaped everyday life. This is about slowing down, browsing with curiosity, and reconnecting with things that were made to last.
Expect a mix of handpicked local vintage and antiques, vintage books, local history and maritime finds, vinyl and northern soul culture, workwear and heritage clothing, jewellery, hats and accessories, and one-off discoveries chosen for their character, usefulness and story. From postcards and cookbooks to fisherman knits, utility jackets, ceramics, records and statement pieces — every stallholder is selected with care.
Alongside the stalls, the market will feature vintage-inspired experiences throughout the day. Expect classic hairstyles, flash-style vintage tattoos, a nostalgic photo booth and prop corner, and creative activity including live demonstrations, a North Shields–style sewing bee, and hands-on making and mending sessions celebrating repair, reuse and practical skills.
Music will run through the event, rooted in vinyl, northern soul and timeless classics, creating a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere where people can browse, chat, dance a little and linger longer.
At its heart, this market is about bringing the past into the present — celebrating everyday objects, local culture and creative skills, while imagining how they can still have a place in our lives today.
Stallholders we’re looking for
We’re inviting curated vintage, antique, heritage and creative stallholders, especially those with a strong sense of storytelling and nostalgia. This includes:
Local vintage and small-scale antique dealers
Vintage clothing, workwear, jewellery, hats and accessories
Vintage & secondhand books, zines, magazines and paper ephemera
Vinyl, cassettes, music memorabilia and northern soul culture
Vintage homewares, ceramics, kitchenalia and everyday objects
Upcycled and creatively reimagined vintage pieces
Maritime, local and regional heritage specialists
Makers offering repair, restoration or live demonstrations
Creative experiences such as tattooists, hairstylists, sewing and mending
We’re especially keen to hear from stallholders who value nostalgia, reuse, accessibility and local connection. A mix of affordable finds and standout pieces is encouraged.
If you have an idea that fits the spirit of the event — even if it doesn’t sit neatly in a category — please get in touch.
