At the Record & CD Fair Rotterdam, exhibitors from the Netherlands and abroad present a broad and diverse range of items. Visitors can browse tens of thousands of LPs, singles, CDs, DVDs, and music memorabilia, spanning countless genres and price points.
From rock & roll and heavy metal to jazz, hip hop, and everything in between—rare collectors’ items and affordable second-hand finds sit side by side in the crates. Every edition offers new discoveries and surprises; no two fairs are ever the same.
The Record & CD Fair Rotterdam is for everyone. Seasoned collectors hunt for special pressings and unique releases, while newcomers benefit from the wide selection of well-priced second-hand records and CDs—often in excellent condition. It’s the ideal place to expand a collection or to start one in an easy, approachable way.
The informal atmosphere invites conversations with exhibitors and fellow visitors. The musical experience is enhanced by a vinyl DJ, providing the soundtrack to a day full of discoveries.
The fair takes place in Hall 2 of Rotterdam Ahoy, a spacious and well-organised venue that offers comfort and an enjoyable fair experience. Thanks to its central location and excellent accessibility, Rotterdam Ahoy is a trusted meeting place for music lovers from Rotterdam and far beyond.
Tickets are cheaper online than at the door. Children up to and including the age of fifteen enter for free when accompanied by an adult. Not all exhibitors have a mobile card machine, so bringing cash is recommended. Rotterdam Ahoy is easily accessible by both public transport and car.
