You may already know of Manchester Vintage as purveyors of retro clobber, or from their monthly market in Ramsbottom. But now the company is branching out further with a new quarterly bazaar: the Prestwich Vintage and Old School Festival. The first event will take place in late February in the town’s Longfield Suite venue. This large function room will be host to 50 stalls of goodies, including clothing, accessories, household items, upcycled furniture and antique collectibles. Fashion shows, workshops and make-overs will be taking place, and a DJ will be spinning authentic vinyl. The venue has a fully licensed bar, so you will be able to enjoy an appropriately old-fashioned libation, like a Vodka Gimlet or a Mint Julep. If you are interested in trading at the event, please see the website below for more info.

Sun 22 Feb, Longfield Suite, 3 Longfield Centre, Tottington, Prestwich, M25 1AY, 10am – 3pm, Entry £1, manchester-vintage.co.uk
