The Stafford Car Boot Sale will return for the 2026 season this Sunday.  

As is traditional, the sale will take place on Stafford Common, where it has been held for over 50 years.  

According to the organisers: "It is not only a fun day out for all the family, but also a great way to make some money.  

"Have a look around and grab yourself a bargain or make some cash selling your unwanted goods." 

Weather permitting, sellers can enter the site from 6am and there is no need to book a pitch. 

Buyers can attend the event from 7am, free of charge.  

Refreshments will be available from a variety of street food stalls.
