We have been organising the Music, CD and Record Fair since 1998, for the first six years in the Royal Marine Hotel,
Dun Laoghaire, running 3 or 4 fairs annually, moving from there to Filmbase, Curved Street in Temple Bar in 2004. This
venue closed suddenly in 2018, and we have now relocated to the CIE Social Club in Inchicore for our large tri-annual fairs.
Now, twenty-six years later and with over 1100 fairs under our belts, dealers travel from all over Ireland, Scotland
and England to exhibit at what is a regular major event in the record fair calendar - the Music, CD & Record Fair.
In the past we have had dealers from: Dublin, Sligo, Wexford, Wicklow, Galway, Cork, Limerick, Longford, Louth, Northern Ireland,
Scotland, Wales, England, France, Sweden and Germany.
We have held Fairs in: Galway, Wexford Town, Kilkenny City, Cork City, Limerick City, Waterford City, Graiguenamanagh,
Drogheda, Dunshaughlin, Dalkey, Ballyshannon, Cashel, Wicklow, Dundalk and in the Dublin area: Blackrock,
