Looking for vintage markets in North Shields or something different to do on the North East coast?
I Love North Shields is bringing three more Vintage Markets to Salt Market Social on North Shields Fish Quay in autumn and winter 2026.
Following the wonderful response to our first two markets, the series returns with an Autumn Edition, a special Coastal Edition and a festive Christmas Edition.
