About
There has been a weekly Antiques & Collectors' Market in Cirencester's Corn Hall every Friday for more than 40 years. The market starts setting up from just after six every Friday morning, and officially opens at eight. Enthusiasts and collectors will find items here to suit all pockets, from a fiver to five hundred, and ranging from vintage and Art Deco, through to ancient and medieval. Glass, Ceramics and Silver can be found in abundance, as well as Jewellery, Metalwares, Furniture and works of art. Some of the dealers also specialise in Vintage stock, from the 1950s and 60s, including fashion, hats, accessories and costume jewellery. There are usually around 50 dealers, and entry is free. There is excellent town-centre parking.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Hidden gem. Shop seems to be never ending and fun to look around. Items were a wide price range to suit all budgets.

From glasses to bottle Cork tops, Toby mugs to jewellery and jewelled glass jars. Much to tempt or admire at all ranges of prices plus all indoors and a café in situ. Enjoyed a gander and was tempted by several trinket that a full bag saved me from collecting.

It was very enjoyable to browse the stalls and chat to the stallholders. Even if you're not looking for something in particular, it's definitely worth a visit.

We found this little cafe at the Market Hall by mistake and what a brilliant mistake, the food was lovely and the tea superb and the staff polite and friendly.
If you want to put your feet up have a meal at the right price this is it, next time we are in cirencester we know what we will be going.
Thank you Sally and Paul

Delighted that you enjoyed your visit to Cirencester, and to the Antiques Centre. Next time you're in the town, and it's a Friday, do call in on the Antiques Market, which is right beside the Kings Head, in the old Corn Hall.

Spent a while here browsing through an interesting selection of antiques and collectables. Very friendly and helpful staff. Stock turns over so you would need to go back again and again to see if they have what you are looking for.

Wow.
I could spend a day here, and we went back twice during our 2 hour visit.
Great range of stuff and great contents for males (don’t you get sick of boring women’s shops). Lots of medals, model cars, army stuff, jewellery, helmets, old chairs.
Shop seems to go on and on the further you go in.
I managed to clean them out of German made model trucks —- (Siku)
Good access of the main town square.

Thanks eawdooley for stepping in, and you're right with your timings. It's worth noting that some dealers do set up before dawn, and "early birds" pop in from around 6:30 am to try and find a real bargain. Stallholders start packing up from around 2:45 pm, but latecomers may still find a few with stock to browse until after four.

The Antiques & Collectables Market is held in the Corn Hall every Friday (unless this falls on Christmas Day, Boxing Day or New Year's Day). Dealers start setting up from about six, with everything 'open' from 8:00 am. They start packing from 3:00 pm, but many are still there an hour later. The Antiques Centre, over the road, is open every day, 09:30-5:00pm except Sunday; 11:00-4:30pm.

The Antiques & Collectables Market is held in the Corn Hall every Friday (unless this falls on Christmas Day, Boxing Day or New Year's Day). Dealers start setting up from the early hours - before six in many cases - but the official opening is at 8:00 am. Allowing time for them to pack up again, and vacate the Hall, they start packing from 3:00 pm. The Forum Car Park is conveniently close.
