Penman Fairs

Penman Antiques Fairs was founded by Caroline Penman in 1972 and held its first events at the Ardingly Showground. The organisers later started staging events at other venues all over the country.

A variety of fairs came under the Penman Fairs umbrella over the years including the Chelsea Antiques Fair. She reduced her involvement in the majority of her fairs in 2019.
