It’s the big one! First Press Record Fair is levelling up for our biggest fair to date at the Brighthelm Centre in the heart of Brighton on August 8th 12-4pm, followed by an after party at the Earth and Stars from 4 until midnight.
We’ll be joined by 20 carefully chosen sellers, collectors and stores with records across genres and styles for your digging pleasure - soundtracked by vinyl DJ sets from DJ Format, The Virgin Vinyls, DJ Tom Yum and First Press George.
We’re welcoming new faces to the line up as always, with debut stalls from Plays at 45, Bobby Coulman, Vinyl Minds Japan Finds, Steve Murphy and DJ Format will be opening his crates as a special guest.
We’re joined by some old friends with the first stalls from Hive Mind and Greg Phillips in three years - and Rob Life, So Far So Real, Balaeric Mike & Khaled Lowe join us once again off the back of our excellent day out at Saltdean Lido in May. It wouldn’t be First Press without David Loja and Vinyl Selecter who will be with us as ever and we’re delighted to welcome back Daddy Bug Records & Keyring Records alongside legends of the game in Geoff Finch aka Vinyl Man and Dr Bob Jones once again, with more sellers to be announced…
We’ll be supporting our charity of choice Help Musicians again after raising money at our last event to help support their excellent work in the early stages of emerging artists careers, with a donation included in the £4 cover charge on the door, before 2pm - with donations welcome afterwards.
After the main event, join us to dig into our finds with DJs, dealers and friends of the fair joining us around the corner at the Earth and Stars immediately after the doors close for an evening of Abyss Brewing beers and music until midnight, with sets from Liam George, MAJ Duckworth, Marc Hive Mind, twentyfourtones, Paul Wilson (aka Ears Wide Open), The Record Caddy, Julian Gomez, DJ Rob Life, Bobby Coulman, David Loja and more!
This is not one to miss
