Brisbane Record Fair 2022 — Triple Treat

Overview

Record Store Day might only come once a year, but Brisbane still gets into the spirit of the occasion each month. That's when a treasure trove of vinyl descends upon a specific spot in this fair city of ours, showering music fiends in the stuff collectors' dreams are made of.

Brisbane Record Fair is the type of event that gives aficionados reason to salivate, deliberate, negotiate, and then spend, spend, spend — after rifling through crates and crates of rare material, obviously. And, it's back at Coorparoo Square for 2022, kicking off from 8.30am–3pm on Saturday, January 8.

Expect a smorgasbord of sounds, offering up music of all types. Whether you're after a decades-old gem or something newer on an LP or a 45, chances are you'll find it here. Sellers come from far and wide to share their wares, including private collectors parting with their sonic pearls.

This first record fair of the new year isn't just about vinyl, however, with the event sharing Coorparoo Square with a plant lovers' market and a vintage clothing market as well. Yes, it's a triple treat, complete with DJs spinning tunes, and food, coffee and booze, too.
