Such a nice day with many vendors of antiques, vintage furniture and home decor. Also a few food and beverage options. Parking was ok except trying to find the entrance to Arco Arena parking lot. And someone needs to do some parking lot upkeep cause it's over grown and needs attention!

I went to the Sac Antique Faire for the first time this month. I'm not an antique collector but I was looking for some cool vintage tees. There were some clothing stalls, but I didn't find anything I liked. Other stalls had furniture, art, toys, cookware, and just about anything you could think of. It was kinda nice to just walk around and look.

There were some food stands. I wanted fried artichoke hearts, but there was only one guy frying and one guy working the front of the stand and when I finally made it to the front he said he had to go and ran off. Very odd. Wouldn't return to that stand again. Note: Parking is $3.

Definitely one of our more favourite places to go antiquing. This antique fair runs every second Sunday of every month and has up to 300 vendors that attend here. If you're looking for something to do on a Sunday and to pass some time this is definitely something to do not only is a great exercise but you get to see so many different things homemade and vintage.

You can definitely always walk away with something from here and you can barter with some other vendors there. Hubby and I never ever walk away empty-handed from this event and we always have a great time seeing everything that they have to offer. It's nice that they have Porta potty set up as well with handwashing stations. They also serve coffee donuts and some food and kettle corn.

Every single vendor wears mask and also provides hand sanitizer. If you're a antique lover definitely definitely check this event out you won't be disappointed I promise.

My friend invited me to join her and a few of her friends here and I invited two of my friends as well. This is not the kind of thing that I typically do, but it's always kind of neat to check something different out. The cost of admission is $3 a person. The part of the faire that appealed to me the most was that there was a few booths selling rocks and crystals.

I love large rocks and was able to find two here at a reasonable price at two different booths. The fair is fairly large and takes up two parking lots. I'm starting to become more of a minimalist, so it felt like too much "stuff" for me, but I understand how it could appeal to collectors or those with a creative or artistic eye. Overall, it's not the kind of thing that I plan to go out of my way to go to again but it was worth checking out once.

Tons of antiques but nothing is cheap for the most part everyone knows what they are selling and what the items are worth. Also no parking anywhere so if you go next year show up early.

Recently discovered this place shortly after discovering my love of vintage. I've only been a handful of times (stinking COVID), but each visit was a new adventure of meeting fellow vintage seekers and sourcing unique vintage pieces. Just an FYI - It is in a semi sketchy area that is not what I would consider clean. The streets are pretty dirty, questionable smells and a few encampments in the immediate vicinity.

I look forward to this outdoor antique fair. have gone home with real treasures, some are authentic antiques, some great pieces of metal yard art. Never know what I'll find! Fun just to walk around and see the variety. Sellers are usually willing to negotiate - always appreciated!

Love it. $3 to get in (my kiddo gets in for free) and lots of great finds. Bring some cash and hunt. After a few visits you get familiar with some of the vendors. Lots of fun.

This is a nice fleamarket. Oddly placed under the freeway. Not my favorite antique flea market but good place to go for a stroll and have a fun antique hunt.

Always Find a Treasure or two here! I like to go at 7:30 AM if I could get there by 6:30 I would but I'm just not awake yet. I believe in concentrating on getting two or three types of items say lamps and tables. That way I don't become overwhelmed because there's just so much to look at. The vendors are all very nice and I have a few favorites that I enjoy saying hello to.

There is a veteran at the desk where you pay your fee to get admitted he is the nicest man I always look forward to seeing him because he has the biggest smile! Parking is easy especially if you get there earlier but walking one or two blocks is not bad you just can't carry too many things at once. Are usually make two or three trips to my car before it's full then I have to leave. I love that it happens every second Sunday rain or shine all year long.

The Sacramento Antique Fair has some of my earliest Sacramento memories associated with it. My family has been coming out here for the Antique Fair for a loooong time. Although, I hadn't been in some time so when I went back for the first time in year, I was pleasantly surprised that it was exactly as I had remembered it. I imagine it to be quite overwhelming for newbies, but it is two huge lots full of goodies for the finding if you're willing to look. It'll take you several hours to sort through it all, but it will be worth it.

There are things at every single price point so whatever your budget, there will be goodies. I was also pleasantly surprised when I was able to bring my dog in, though she was safely tucked in my sweater. I imagine it being much more difficult to maneuver the crowded rows if you brought a dog on a leash. It's definitely an antique fair which means that there are some gems and some genuine garbage, but I encourage you to dig through the mountains of things to find some awesome vintage finds!

2nd Sunday Fun Day at the Antique Faire! Mad props for all the great vendors at the Antique Faire. This place has gotten so popular since I've lived in Sacramento. Rightly so. The high quality stuff for sale is better than any other Faire around. This isn't 99 Cents store goods like some I've been to, or just junk. This is an Antique Faire.

This is not a flea market. This means that the goods for sale are of a quality you'd find in an antique or consignment store. This also means that it's just fun to walk around! Browsing all of the stalls is great eye candy, all colors, shapes, and ages of the stuff makes me think of cool things to do with it. The crowd is heavy but not overbearing.

There is a ton of room in this massive outdoor environment. That's also another great quality. It's outside! Get out on a fine Sunday morning, bring your family and kids or beau. Just take a walk around even if you don't buy anything. The prices are not deals. Don't go expecting that. It's all retail. Parking is a pain as well. But whatever. Too much fun to make me give less stars. I think this Faire is becoming a California staple. I'll be going. It's once a month so don't miss it.

If you like garage sales then this is your place. Dozens of tables filled with assorted junk you might find in an old garage or attic. Nominal charge of a few dollars to get in, but I'm not sure everybody was paying if you know what I mean. We like to look at old books and costume jewelry, and so weren't disappointed. There really weren't amazing finds though, just the usual stuff but plenty of it. Met a man from Africa who had statuary and other art. Fascinating guy and really interesting pieces just wait outside of our price range. While you're here the antique store across the street is pretty cool, as well as the bee store. Have fun!

I am a flea market junkie. So when I see an Antique Faire, I think, ohhhhhh, fancy flea market and jump to it. Though it was no where near the 300 vendors it advertises (more like almost 150-175), but it was still a lot of vendors. I was in other peoples junk heaven. There were old timey signs, gumball machines, old vintage toys (my favorites), a couple of the vendors even had flintlock rifles.

The cool part was they had a few food vendors there as well, the go-to's, hotdogs, Chinese, popcorn to the fancy lobster poorboys. Overall, worth the $3 entrance but maybe the summer would have more vendors. We did come right after a few days of rain and that might have cut a few vendors out.

A fast-paced, high-energy show with lots of customers & vendors. You can always find just about anything you're looking for. And even somethings you didn't realize you needed.

I had been dying to come to the Sacramento Antique Faire for EVER when my boyfriend and I happened upon it one sunny afternoon. General admission is $3 per person and parking can be a little hectic (mostly side streets and meters). There were tons of vendors but I found that most of them were not willing to engage in some healthy bartering and that really turned me off.

We ended up interested in several different pieces and compared a couple different vendors before making very reasonable and fair offers, only to get rudely snubbed/shut down. Nothing overly impressive; but then again, like my Grandpa always use to say, "Antiques are just someone else's junk".

I never thought I'd visit an antique faire, but here I am writing a review. I was definitely inspired to make the visit here on Sunday after several episodes of Fixer Upper. Admission is $3 per person. The faire was WAY bigger than I expected. It covered two whole blocks, so you're sure to spend a few hours here. There are so many interesting items to looking, which is definitely worth the $3 admission.

Some of my favorite pieces were anything farmhouse (the sinks, old tin buckets, anything reclaimed wood), the old Disney prints and books, old suitcases (would make really cool storage pieces), or the old mirrors for the Beauty & The Beast look. I was looking for home decor pieces and thought I was having no luck util the end of my trip. I found an old highway sign that survived the Santa Rosa fires this past fall.

It had some burns on it and read "Calistoga" and I knew I had to have it. My boyfriend and I are big wine drinkers and go to Napa & Sonoma as much as possible, so it felt like fate seeing it there. We happily bought it and are super excited to display it soon.

If you like junk in this is a good place to check out. 2 blocks of antique, vintage and junkin vendors. We typically come about twice a year. We recognize some of the vendors each time. It's a fun way to spend a Sunday morning. You just never know what you might find. They also have a few food vendors.

I freaking love this fair! So much to look at! And I've definitely found some great deals. My tip would be getting there early as some vendors tend to pack up early. This way you can also beat the heat. I don't see what all the complaining here is all about - the fair charges you $3 to enter which is less than a cup of Starbucks. If you can't part with $3 for admission, maybe you shouldn't be shopping in the first place.

And as far as "junk" goes there is certainly a lot of junky stuff but people who dismiss this fair are leaving more treasures for me to find : I mean what do you expect for $3, a carefully curated selection of Gothic Revival fainting couches?

This was our first time there and we had a great time just strolling around seeing what everyone had to offer. Though some of the asking prices are a bit ridiculous it was still a fun new adventure. The cost is $3 to get in but it was well worth it. Not to mention that it was in an entire lot and then continued in another large lot. It was nice that they had food trucks and vendors there to feed your belly while shopping.

I would love to come back here again. 3 stars because I'm just unsure how to base my rating. It was nice and we had a good time but it was just meh. I know that doesn't make it seem all that thrilling but I think everyone should at least give it a try. It was a beautiful day for it.

The Sacramento Antique Faire is every second Sunday and it costs $3 to get in. They don't take card for the fee so make sure that you have cash on hand. There's a parking lot for people but I usually find street parking. It's a cheap way to spend a Sunday. I think I've only bought a few things there, but I mostly go to see all the cool stuff and take pictures.

They have everything, records, clothes, hardware, you name it. The Antique Faire spans two huge parking lots under the overpass, so when you pay the admittance fee you get a stamp on your hand so you can get into the other one. If you go early you get to see all the stuff but if you go later there's usually less people. I love coming here, and I highly recommend stopping by. There's a few food vendors in both lots, and there are porta potties as well. There are some really cool things to be seen. This place is the bee's knees!

Impressive New Items Every Month SITREP Alright. I guess I have to come out and say it now: I'm an Antiquing Freak. Thanks to my sweet friends Bambi & Fabi, I've been coming out to this faire now for more than 2 years! (Yeah, I can't believe it either!) THE SETUP I continue to find great items and assorted odd knick-knacks, ranging from tie-hangers, hot wheel cars, and the random pendant and chain.

Most recently, I got an AWESOME "Winnie the Pooh & Friends" table which was the perfect height for me to set in front of the big screen TV so I could COMFORTABLY set-up my laptop on it & type my Yelp reviews. WIN-WIN, right? RECENT CACHES OF FUN! * This past Saturday, Bambi actually found a "Mommy Dearest" wire hangar - THAT was creepy IRONIC funny! http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/sacramento-antique-faire-sacramento#tLWpBU4zGw3kf7dUwOFN2g * Just this past Sunday, I got for $1 a complete "Feline Pharoah" Mystery Puzzle set. [And more IRONY in that I happened to be wearing my Anhk that day.] My Pocket-Panthers JACK & BOBBY and I have already begun to lay this out on the kitchen table and see if any kind of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" strikes us. [Well at least I'M taking the puzzle seriously - I've found out that they are more interested in KNOCKING the pieces off the table onto the floor - the fuzzy bastards aren't much help.];) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/sacramento-antique-faire-sacramento#8fBm6loYdCgzWlXw2FtJ9A HICCUP I wasn't too crazy when the Antique Faire got moved to the riverfront south of the Towe Ford museum - that was the oddess set-up and much further away from so that I couldn't comfortably walk it from Midtown.

Though this was the time I found my cool Garfield suitcase: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/sacramento-antique-faire-sacramento#g4R9wC2pEcU13X88p6iWlQ But now the universe has found balance & order since the Antique Faire is once again under the Business 80 Freeway between 19th & 21st Streets. THE LOWDOWN The Sacramento Antique Faire Still Rocks My Socks!
