WELLINGTON VINTAGE FAIR & SWAP MEET will now no longer be proceeding.
BY THE ROTARY CLUB OF WELLINGTON
Community Announcement: Wellington Vintage Fair Update
Important Notice: Wellington Vintage Fair & Swapmeet
It is with deep regret that we announce the Wellington Vintage Fair & Swapmeet will not be proceeding.
Our small and aging committee has reached the difficult decision that we can no longer continue running the event. While this fair has been a much-loved tradition, the reality is that it costs tens of thousands of dollars to stage — from venue hire to road closures, traffic management, public safety, and ever-increasing regulatory requirements. These rising costs, combined with the limited capacity of our volunteer base, have made it unsustainable for us to carry on.
We thank everyone who has supported the Fair over the years — our exhibitors, stallholders, car clubs, community groups, and the many visitors who came to celebrate vintage heritage in Wellington. Your enthusiasm kept the spirit of the event alive for many years, and we are proud of what we achieved together.
The Rotary Club of Wellington will once again be holding a Gold Coin Donation entry Family Event in April 2026…. the 2026 Dag Drags Sheep Dash with market stalls, food vendors, children’s activities and rides etc
