The show is held at the
Alex Madonna Expo Center in beautiful San Luis Obispo. It is the perfect location for our show with the Madonna Inn as a landmark hotel in San Luis Obispo and its event facility, Alex Madonna Expo Center. The show will be both indoors and outdoors, rain or shine. There will be adequate parking with parking attendants to direct you. You will ride the trolley up to the Expo Center, just a short 2 minute ride up the hill.
The show starts at 9am both Saturday October 8 and Sunday October 9. When you buy your ticket on Saturday, it will allow you to attend the show both Saturday and Sunday. A portion of the entrance admission will be given to the
Women’s Shelter Program of San Luis Obispo.
As we open each day, we do expect a line of anxious shoppers just like you so there will be coffee and pastries for sale and you will have time to share with other people your junkin’ stories. That is the best part, talking about the treasure that you just found or the one that got away.
The gates open promptly at 9 am and you are off! There are amazing
vendors both indoors and outdoors. Take your time looking at the booths because each of the specially selected vendors have “given their all” to bring you “their best of their best” and to display them creatively. I can hardly wait to see what they do! Each vendor always amazes me with their talent and creativity. Vendors generally prefer you not take photos of their items, so please always ask each vendor if it is okay with them before doing so.
When your hands are full with all the fun things you found, we offer a bag and package check just outside to safely keep your treasures until you are ready to leave. If you have bought something that you cannot carry, we will have a porter help you get your items to your car. If you are from out of the area, we will have UPS on the property to take care of your shipping needs.
When purchasing, most vendors will accept credit cards, cash or check. If you run out of cash, there will be an ATM machine available for your convenience. This year when you need a little something to eat so that you can continue to shop, we will have several food vendors with delicious items for purchase.
Smoking and pets are not allowed on the property so unfortunately you will have to leave your beloved pets at home.
I am very excited for you to see the amazing talent that is all in one place. Each show, the Vendors never cease to surprise me with their talent, creativity and most of all the passion for what they do and their kindness towards others. Be sure to visit my
blog and Facebook page for updates as we go. Thank you for all your support! It means a lot to me and all the vendors. Have a wonderful time!
