Golden Lane Estate: Festive Market
GL Community Centre EC1Y 0SA
Sunday 30.11.25
12 noon to 4pm

Early Bird London joined us last year for the first time at the Golden Lane Estate Festive Market, organised by the inimitable Bev Bytheway, Velorose gallery friend. Bev organises this fabulous festive market annually, bringing a variety of stallholders together to sell gifts, arts, crafts and design. Our joint stall with Liz of Early Bird London selling vintage art, ceramics, lighting and furniture was such a hit that we’re back again this year with more fabulous finds and pre-loved objets d’art to make the perfect (self) gift at this time of year

Think of the Golden Lane Festive Market as a preview of the Early Bird London ‘Vintage @ Velorose’ to follow in December

Romancero Books Instant Bookshop
(Just Add Books)
Saturday 06.12.25 + Sunday 07.12.24
Both days 12 noon to 6pm

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Jorge Gárriz twice a year for the last two years, and he’s back with his exceptional online bookshop Romancero Books 'in real life’ (in person, and in book). With literature from Spain and Latin America - some in translation to English - the breadth of his librería takes in fiction, poetry, essays, graphic novels and children’s books, with a special focus on women writers and LGBTQ+ voices. A fiesta atmosphere always comes to the gallery with the appearance of Romancero Books, and this will be no exception for their festive season 2025 edition

More Velorose veteran than vintage visitor, Jorge Gárriz is cultural manager at the Cervantes Institute, London. We had the pleasure of hosting Romancero Books’ 5th birthday party earlier this year, and once again, all are welcome

Early Bird London: Vintage @ Velorose

Daily 12 noon to 6pm

Early Bird London: Vintage @ Velorose Festive Opening Party
Monday 08.12.25
6pm to 9pm
All welcome

Last but not least for 2025, vintage veteran and suprema Liz Hasell returns with Early Bird London for Vintage @ Velorose for two weeks. Nobody sources such super art, design, furniture, ceramics, glass, lighting and homewares - seasonal or not - as Liz, and this will be our third collaboration transforming the gallery in to a grotto of vintage goodness. Whether it’s something for yourself, something forever, something for someone special (or all the above, and none), pop in for a corkscrew and leave with a side-table. (Pleasant) surprises abound in store - and the warmest of welcomes, as ever

Opening Monday 8 December evening with a seasonal celebration to which all are welcome, Early Bird London Vintage @ Velorose is the perfect end once more to the most wonderful time of the gallery year. Cheers!
