About Funk Fair

Funk Fair is coming back to the Drill Hall!

Funk Fair is Edinburgh’s original vintage market, first launched in 2004 and now back with a fresh energy. It brings together a carefully curated mix of quality antiques, mid-century furniture, vintage fashion, homeware, art, records and beautifully made pieces with real character.

It’s the kind of place where you might find a statement sideboard, a piece of retro lighting, collectible ceramics or a small treasure you didn’t know you needed! The traders are knowledgeable, friendly and genuinely passionate about what they do.

With the venue bar open and great music setting the tone, Funk Fair feels as much like a social gathering as a market. Come for a browse, stay for a drink, take your time. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or simply love interiors with soul, it’s all about good design, good atmosphere and the thrill of the find.
