PREPARE for a trip back in time with Lou Lou’s Cardiff Vintage Fair. The UK’s biggest travelling vintage fair returns to the city on Sunday, featuring stall upon stall of eclectic and affordable vintage treasures.

Offering a collection of Britain’s finest vintage traders, the pop-up market hosts handpicked, quality vintage stock that spans from the 1920s onwards.

Retro lovers can expect everything from fashion for men and women to homeware and collectables in a meltingpot of all things vintage.

Winning the accolade of ‘Best Vintage Fair’ in the UK for three years running, Lou Lou’s are unstoppable and now visit more than 40 locations with over 100 events a year.

Joining Lou Lou’s at the City Hall will be a vintage tea party hosted by Lil’s Parlour who will provide a plethora of delicious cakes and bakes fresh from their kitsch kitchen. Shoppers can enjoy their tea and sweet treat served up on beautiful vintage china in the pop up tearoom.
