The popular event took place over the course of Friday 7 and Saturday April 8 for the final time due to a decision to redevelop the showground.
The festival- hosted by the International Antiques and Collectors Fairs- drew large crowds and a raft of precious and fascinating items.
It has been a regular fixture on the city’s calendar for a number of years but like a host of events, including Truckfest, has been driven out of the city by the development plans.
Will Thomas, IACF Managing Director said: “I am really disappointed that IACF can’t continue to hold the Festival of Antiques at Peterborough, this is a fantastic event in a great location. It’s a real shame for us at IACF and I am sorry too for the people of Peterborough and the surrounding areas to be losing the showground which is such a big part of their community and identity.”
Mr Thomas continued "We hope to see all our loyal visitors at our Newark Antiques & Collectors Fair that takes place six times a year and is just a short trip up the A1”.
