Art & Antiques for Everyone Fair

The Art & Antiques for Everyone fair was a regular event at the NEC in Birmingham. Founded in 1986, it was one of the largest indoor antiques and interiors fairs outside of London and previously ran three times a year.

Previously organised by Clarion Events, it was taken over by MaD Events in 2019. In 2023, it was announced that the fair would be cancelled.
