The stadium is near the club and the local disruption that accompanies any major sporting fixture, such as severe traffic restrictions, persuaded the Pughs to book the 60 Cardiff exhibitors into the Cowbridge Leisure Centre in the Broadshoard, behind the High Street.
The fair will be signposted and admission is £3. The Cardiff fair returns to the bowling club for the summer staging on August 30 and 31.
Problem tackled
AS a one-off, the spring version of the twice-yearly Cardiff Antiques and Collectors’ Fair decamps to the nearby country town of Cowbridge. Carmarthen-based Robert and Carol Pugh, who operate as Towy Fairs, have been forced out of their regular venue, the Cardiff Bowling Club, by a rather rougher fixture than bowling, the Rugby League Cup Final which will be held at the Millennium Stadium on the same weekend – April 26 and 27.
