A Landmark Moment for Rutland: The Inaugural BADA Art & Antiques Fair

Rutland is set to welcome an exciting new chapter in its cultural calendar this summer with the arrival of the first-ever British Antique Dealers’ Association (BADA) art and antiques fair to be held outside of London.

BADA Art & Antiques Fair Rutland is taking place from Friday 5 to Sunday 7 June 2026, at the Rutland Hall Hotel. Visitors to BADA Rutland are warmly invited to make the most of their time in the county by including a visit to The Rutland Gallery in their itinerary, an ideal complement to a weekend of BADA art and antiques.

Located in the historic market town of Uppingham only 15 minutes drive from the Rutland Hall Hotel, The Rutland Gallery showcases a thoughtfully curated selection of contemporary and traditional artwork, with a particular emphasis on British artists. A visit to the gallery offers a complementary experience to the BADA fair - providing a quieter, more reflective space to engage with art beyond the bustle of the exhibition.

As Rutland prepares to host this prestigious event, June promises to be an inspiring time for art lovers. Whether attending the BADA fair, exploring the county’s picturesque surroundings, or discovering the collections at The Rutland Gallery, there has never been a better moment to immerse yourself in art in Rutland.

The Rutland Gallery is open every day from 10:30am to 4:00pm
