Here's a map of all the UK record stores doing home delivery during lockdown

Record Store Day 2020 may have been postponed in the UK as a result of the continuing coronavirus crisis – but music fans are being encouraged to shop at independent record stores online using the map below.

This year’s annual event – due to be held on Saturday April 18 – was set to see hundreds of vinyl and cassette releases sold exclusively through independent record shops for one day only.

Up to 230 independent record shops from every corner of the UK, as well as thousands around the world, were set to take part in the celebrations with live in-store performances, mini street festivals and entertainment.

But with the ongoing coronavirus crisis continuing to hit the UK music industry, organisers have been forced to postpone this year’s event until June 20.

Instead, people are being urged to support their local independent record shop online and pledging to order the “one missing record in their collection” in support of the new #RSDFillTheGap campaign launched by Record Store Day.

Below is an Offical Charts Company interactive map of all the shops in the UK. You can search by city or area.

In a previous statement shared on Twitter, the organisers wrote: “We are sad to announce that following a decision made by the organisers of Record Store Day, the event will be postponed to June 20.

“This decision comes at a time of unprecedented uncertainty and the health and safety of the general public must come first.

“This was absolutely not an easy decision to make as hundreds of independent shops and labels have been working hard towards this year’s celebrations.”
