Whilst our volunteer editors will do their best to ensure our events listings are as up to date and accurate as possible; with the fast pace of how things are changing, it is inevitable that some will slip through the net. If you are planning on travelling for larger events, we would recommend that you contact the venues directly to avoid disappointment. We are putting in place new measures to give event organisers a friendly reminder to see if they wish to remove cancelled events, so we're sorry if it looks a bit bare in here :(
If you, or any of your party have a new persistant cough, or develop a fever of 38C, we would instead advise you to use the NHS's dedicated website for free, professional advice.
Stonham Barns Thursday & Sunday Car Boots 30th July, 2nd August 2026, 30th July 2026 to 2nd August 2026, 7:00 to 13:00 at Stonham Car Boot, Pettaugh Road, Stonham Aspal (19.6 miles)
Stonham Barns Thursday & Sunday Car Boots 30th July & 2nd August 2026
Huge thanks to all the sellers and buyers that persevered on Sunday as we had a full day despite the sprinkling of rain. Great turn out considering the weather forecasts.
Back again on THURSDAY - where we expect a good number of sellers and hopefully lots more buyers. There isn’t a Car Boot in Suffolk on a Thursday so please support us if you want there to be one. It’s school holidays - sellers are looking for places to sell so we just need you all to take 15 minutes and have a browse. 7 onwards although we open the gates at 6am - Midweek Car Boots liven up after 8am.
Sunday will be busy as usual and weather looking great this weekend. we only have 20 covered stalls and they do sell quickly. Irrespective of that we should have a lot of sellers and lots of buyers. No booking needed, as usual, just turn up and sell from £7.
Next Sunday 9th August 2026 we have The Big Bus Show at the same time as the Car Boot and this is extremely popular especially as there are buses to Stonham regularly throughout the day. Plus a week (16th August) later we have The Classic Car Show which is Stonham’s biggest show.
Covered stalls are available for £13 and include a guaranteed main field pitch near the toilets and food area. You can park directly behind your stall. They're popular and handy when shade is needed. To book, text 07817 539168. Everyone else just turn up on the day no booking needed.

Thursday Car Boot Returns
The Thursday Car Boot reopened on 23rd July and runs until 3rd September. Selling is £7 for all vehicle sizes and no pitch size restrictions. Opening time will be 7am onwards. It livens up after 8am and with the shops opening. As I keep saying there’s always so much interest from the sellers we just need the buyers to show the same and make it a regular event like the Sundays.
A Quick Reminder
Please take cardboard boxes home or flatten them before putting them in the bins. Thank you.
