Rayleigh trinity fair
an event for the whole community - free entry for all
The original Trinity Fair ran in Rayleigh each year from 1227. The Trinity Fair was shut down in 1899 as it had become "too rowdy."
Following the tremendous success of the previous 5 years of Trinity Fair, Rayleigh Trinity Fair will return again in 2024.
The High Street will be closed to traffic on this day and will be filled with stalls, live music on stage, dancing and other entertainment. This is an event for the whole Community to come and enjoy. Entry to the event is free for everybody all day.
