Fair Play, which hosts evening record fairs in Northern Quarter cocktail bar Behind Closed Doors, makes a special extended appearance to mark Record Store Day. Opening its doors earlier than usual at 1pm for this RSD special, the fair offers a room full of vinyl from a rotating selection of sellers invited from across the country.

With DJs playing well into the night, Fair Play is as much a social outing as a chance to bag that rare slice of vinyl you’ve been searching for.
