Cockfrock – Cockermouth’s pre-loved fashion and shopping experience – returns later this month.
Cockfrock Spring 2025 takes place at the town’s Kirkgate Centre on Saturday May 17, and Sunday May 18 and organisers have announced that all sales spots have already been snapped up.
“That means it’s now too late to sell off that glamorous gown that’s been languishing in the wardrobe,” said Kirkgate chief executive Emma Heys.
“The good news for buyers, however, is that the full complement of 2,000 pre-loved, good quality ladies’ garments will be on sale at knock-down prices.”
A new twist for Cockfrock Spring 2025 is the opportunity to pick up a bargain in time for school prom season.
The annual two-day sale of pre-loved, good quality ladies’ fashion has become established as a key part of the town’s calendar.
Emma said: “Looking for a knockout prom dress at a knockdown price? Then this is the sale for you!
“We’re hoping that this focus on prom season will help many households enjoy that fun night in a much more cost-effective way, as new prom dresses can run into hundreds of pounds.
“However, May’s event is not all about prom night. We’ll be looking for new homes for good quality ladies’ fashions and accessories across the board, while making a little bit of welcome money for sellers.”
Cockfrock co-ordinator Judith Bennington said: “It’s a great event for all supporters of circular fashion, a fun opportunity to restyle your wardrobe at a bargain price.”
Cockfrock 2025 is open to the public from 10.30am to 5pm on Saturday, May 17, and 10am to 1pm on Sunday, May 18.
