Seaham car boot sale cancelled due to ‘high winds’
Seaham car boot sale, ran by Nobles Promotions Limited, took to social media this morning (March 29) to share the news.
The Facebook post said: “Unfortunately due to the high winds forecast for today the car boot fair at Seaham is cancelled for today.
“We will see you all next week.”
The car boot sale usually operates on Sundays between 12pm and 5pm, from the last Sunday in March to the third Sunday in October.
It is located north of the existing parking area at Seaham Hall Farm, off the B1287 road.
The seasonal event has previously been praised for its positive impact on the local community.
“The car boot sale is of substantial social and economic importance to Seaham and the wider area,” a planning statement read.
“On a typical Sunday, around 230 sellers and over 4,500 buyers attend, generating significant spend that benefits local traders, catering outlets, and the visitor economy.
“It is more than a market: it is a valued community meeting place, supporting social interaction, affordable opportunities for families, and the re-use and recycling of goods.”
