The St Crispin Street Fair is a fair held periodically in the Market Square of Northampton, England. It is organised by Northampton Borough Council.
The event is a travelling funfair with over 100 amusement rides, usually operating on several days of the October half-term school holiday with the precise days varying from year to year. In 2012, shop owners raised concerns about how the new fair could affect their business during Hallowe'en weekend.<ref name="C&E">"Return of St Crispin’s fair a concern", Northampton Chronicle & Echo; accessed 21 October 2012.</ref> In 2014, the fair was held from 25 to 29 October with a large part of it held on a nearby car park.
