Canada’s biggest vintage market returns to Toronto Apr. 1 and 2
More than 125 featured at the spring edition of the Toronto Vintage Show
Vintage lovers will once again flock to Toronto Apr. 1 and 2 to search for sustainable, stylish pieces for their wardrobes and homes at Canada’s largest vintage show.
The biannual Toronto Vintage Show, now in its 11th year, will feature more than 125 vendors on a 40,000-square-foot show floor showcasing vintage clothing, homewares, decor and collectibles.
The two-day show attracts a wide range of vintage enthusiasts and casual shoppers with its vendor mix comprised of more than 50 per cent clothing vendors as part of the Toronto Vintage Clothing Show, plus decor and collectibles specialists and sellers that bridge both fashion and decor (the decor offshoot was formerly known as the Toronto Antique & Vintage Market).
A walk down the show aisles yields a fabulous array of covetable items: a range of gender-inclusive apparel, streetwear, barware, vintage Pyrex, mid-century modern items, upcycled pieces, vinyl records, vintage artwork, lamps, vases, Victorian glassware, Blue Mountain pottery and more.
