At Abbeyleix Manor Hotel · Abbeyleix, Co. Laois
Only the published dates are confirmed for this programme.
The Laois Antiques & Vintage Fair takes over Abbeyleix Manor Hotel on Sunday, 6 December 2026, running from noon to 5:30pm, with multiple stallholders selling antique, vintage and collectible items together under one roof for the afternoon.
The fair brings together a number of dealers in one hotel function space, covering the usual range of an antiques and vintage fair: furniture, collectibles, jewellery, vintage clothing and similar smaller items, browsed at a relaxed pace rather than a fast-moving car boot format. Entry is a small flat admission charge rather than free, which is typical for this kind of dealer fair. With the date falling in early December, it doubles as an option for Christmas gift browsing away from the main shopping streets. Fairs of this kind typically bring together a rotating group of specialist dealers rather than the same stallholders every time, so the exact mix of furniture, jewellery, collectibles and vintage clothing on offer can vary from one date to the next.
Abbeyleix Manor Hotel is in Abbeyleix, within easy reach of Portlaoise, Durrow and Ballyragget. The hotel has its own grounds and guest car park for visitors arriving by road.
Abbeyleix is known for its wide, tree-lined Main Street, and is a pleasant town to walk around before or after browsing the fair. It sits a short drive south of Portlaoise, making it an easy addition to a day trip elsewhere in the county rather than a standalone destination. There is more to see in Abbeyleix and across Co. Laois.
