OUR RACECOURSE FAIRS

Goodwood Racecourse Antique & Collectors Fair

Taxis:  Arun Fairs recommend Station Taxis
(Chichester) for your ride to Goodwood Racecourse
from Chichester Station at a reasonable cost of
approx. £11.00 one way (return journey
bookable).  They are Hackney Carriage vehicles
with room for your shopping (excess chargeable)
and they have ramps for disabled passengers.

Entrance is £3.00 for Adults, £2.50 OAP's and free
entrance to children under 15.  Don’t forget even if
it is raining and there are fewer stalls outside
there are still 120 stalls to peruse inside the two
Grandstands so plenty for our visitors to see.

Please note:

If you wish to have a stall at the Goodwood fair or
the Fontwell fair, you can download the booking
forms and all the details from the main menu.  To
book all our other venues please give us a call and
we can arrange your booking over the telephone.

Fontwell Racecourse Antique & Collectors Fair

Taxis:  We recommend Barnham Station Taxis for
your ride to Fontwell Park at a cost of approx.
£6.50.  Cabs can be hailed from Barnham Station
(nearest to the racecourse) or pre booked on
01243 551753.

Great news we had a very successful first fair at
the Fontwell Park Racecourse on 30th May and are
very pleased to announce we have booked three
fairs for 2012 including a celebratory event for the
Queen's Diamond Jubilee.  Please see
Calendar
page for full details.

There a
re two cafes and ample free parking.  
Stallholders exhibit in the new Grandstand and the
permanent marquee as well as around the outside
hard standing areas.  

Assembly Hall & Cisswood House Fair

We have decided to part company with the
Assembly Hall for now.  We have had a good 5
years at this lovely venue but we feel the fair is not
supported as well as it should be and lacks the
support of the Worthing locals.  Our loyal Arun
Fairs followers came to the fair on a regular basis
and visitors from other areas have supported it
well but we feel a good size fair like the one we
had at the Assembly Hall deserved more
attendance than it was getting.

We are also parting company with our small but
good quality fair at the Cisswood House Hotel at
the end of this year.  We have been at the hotel for
a couple of years and although always enjoyable
we feel small fairs (30 stalls) have a limited life
and we are finding it difficult to have the dates we
request.  We now have bigger fish to fry as s
hown
above
.  However we do have one last fair at the
Cisswood House Hotel on Sunday 30th October
which will be full of stallholders and we hope will
spark off the Christmas shopping rush - there will
be many bargains to be had and we hope to see
you there.

As promised in our last 'NEWS' update we have
been researching our future within our West
Sussex encatchment and have decided to tweak
the business which we believe will suit both our
stallholders and visiting public.  The plan is to
carry on with our ever popular monthly fair at the
Woodlands Centre, Rustington (now celebrating
our 16th anniversary) where so many people have
made friends, made good sales and found bargains
across the board from small collectables to top
drawer antiques.  Combined with the lovely
catering, great atmosphere, free parking and
cheap entrance, this is our great monthly get
together where sellers collect their Racecourse
fairs booking forms, catch up on the latest 'Fairs'
gossip and all sorts.

The next part of our plan which we are very happy
to report is that Arun Fairs will now be holdng 3
fairs at the Fontwell Park Racecourse and 3 fairs at
the Goodwood Racecourse in 2012 and hope to
follow this formula well into the future.

All details of dates and times can be found on the
Calendar page and of course if you wish to sell at a
racecourse fair our booking forms can be
downloaded from this website or if you prefer
please call and we will send you the forms and all
the details you require.
