Our local fair. The XXL Platenbeurs Haarlem takes over the Kennemer Sportcenter in Haarlem-Noord with about 250 metres of tables full of LPs, singles and CDs across every genre, brought in by Variaworld’s regular dealers.

Coming nearly two months after the Haarlem Vinyl Festival, it is a good chance to fill the gaps in your collection before the Christmas lists come out, and it sits comfortably within a bike ride of Zandvoort, Heemstede and Bloemendaal.
