On the Day Venues, Stages and Traders

The Beggars Fair takes place in the many pubs, hotels, shops, churches, gardens and open spaces that Romsey has to offer. Some are indoors, some outdoors, but all the venues and stages used are just a short stroll from each other. The roads in the centre are closed to traffic, too.

All of our venues are existing businesses or open spaces, but not all premises have step-free access. For further details on access, see the Venue Accessibility page.

All venues are free to enter and open to everyone. There’s never any need for a ticket at Beggars Fair! However, if you buy a souvenir programme then you can help contribute to the continued running of the event. The running order with all the venues and band start times will be listed within it.

Traders

Along with all the great shops in Romsey, Beggars Fair always invite a wide variety of local traders to give our visitors more food options and stalls to browse. Please click here to see our full list of traders.
