Indoor car boot sales, north east ?

I've been googling the usual bootsale lists online trying to find an indoor one in the north east. The only one I've found is at Tanfield Lea, going to ring today to see if it's still going, does anyone know of any others ? We did the one at scorton a couple of times but it's a loooonnng drive and a very early start. We moved house 2 months ago and wow we have LOADS to get rid of lol. Going to start listing on eBay again too.

    Theres a big carboot at Sedgefield Racecourse, another at Seaham.
    If you go to www.nobles-promotions.co.uk you can have a look and see if any are near to you.

    Edit : I must learn to read properly lol, The ones ive mentoned are outside. Oops, sorry. But contact the organisers as there might be some indoor ones also.
  • There's Hexham, but it might be a bit of a trek depending on where you are. In the summer it's outside, but when the weather gets like this they move inside. It's in the Auction Mart and it's very big and gets loads of buyers. It's a 'proper' boot sale too - no new items. If it was a choice between Tanfield Lea and Hexham I would do Hexham everytime, TL is horrible - lots of dealers and not very big. Hexham has a facebook page here. BTW if you decide to do it, they advertise sellers for 10.30, in reality you need to get there for 9 - 9.30 cos the queue to get in gets masssssive!

  • Looks like the tanfield lea one starts in a months time. The only other indoor one is scorton. It's ok but we have to set off about 4.30am. :(
    Considering the British weather you would think there would be more indoor ones lol !
  • Most of our local indoor boot sales are organised by local groups such as hall committee's and sports clubs, so you could contact any local halls you have to see if they hold regular events which might not get advertised on the car boot websites.
  • I believe the one at Darlington FC is to be held indoors there during the winter months. The other advantage is its 10am opening to the public, and from 8.30am to stall holders so its not too early to get up!
