The annual event, which runs from 10am to 4pm on Sunday, August 18, has been organised by the Stalham Area Business Forum.
There will be more than 70 stallholders, from as far away as Leicester and Essex.
On sale will be furniture, auto-jumble, tools, books, pictures, lamps, mirrors, fabrics, clothing, shoes, hats, luggage, china, glass, LPs, military and kitchen objects, jewellery, garden and agricultural ironwork, postcards, stamps, watches, paper ephemera and bric-a-brac.
Organiser Diana Cornell, from the forum, said: "If you enjoy rummaging for bargains, hunting down that vintage outfit, looking for that perfect showstopper for the mantelpiece, or just browsing through books, furniture, pictures, LPs, cards, china and jewellery, then you must make a date.

"This event is now one of the highlights of north Norfolk antiques hunters, with hundreds travelling to find something unusual for their collection or home.
"Dress up, put on those blue suede shoes, trilbies, cloche hats, polka dot dresses and strut your stuff in Stalham."
