Visitors can expect silverware, ceramics, glass, jewellery, vintage clothing, accessories and more.

Helen Yourston, director of event organiser B2B Events, said: “Whether you seek a unusual antique piece for your living room, or a distinctive outfit for a special event, you will find it here”.

Early admission (from 8.15am) is £6 per person; standard admission on Saturday is from 10am at a cost of £5 per person and Sunday entry is from 10am at £4 per person. Cash only entry.

The Royal Highland Centre has introduced a £5 per vehicle parking charge, but B2B Events and some exhibitors are said to be counteracting this by offering discount options, decribed in leaflets to be handed out on the day.
