The 2025 West End Flea Market took place this weekend and raised a whopping £110,000 for charity! The event took place on Saturday 17th May at St Paul’s Church in Covent Garden. The fundraiser is in it’s 5th Year of running. This amount of money wildly surpassed their goals and last years total of £74,000.
The West End Flea Market raises money for charity Acting For Others. They provide financial and emotional support to all theatre workers in times of need, whether they are backstage, on stage, front of house, or creatives, anyone who’s contributed to the workings of the theatre.
To raise money at the event, many West End Productions got involved by selling merchandise, carnival games and donating items for an online auction which you can get involved in until 23rd May! The items available include props from the musicals Hadestown and Wicked. There’s also a lot of signed merchandise from these productions. This is as well as a limited edition jacket from The Phantom Of The Opera.
There were stalls from the cast of Mean Girls, Mamma Mia, Six and Tina to name a few. However, The Book of Mormon stole the show! They were crowned this year’s Best Dressed Stall, in the competition judged by national stars Christopher Biggins and Arlene Phillips.
The West End Flea Market also sported an autograph tent. This included many West End Stars such as Luke Bayer (Titanique), Clare Foster (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button) and Simon Lipkin (Oliver) to name a few. You could also grab writer autographs including the writer of The hit musical Six, Toby Marlowe.
