Cookstown Outdoor Antique and Vintage Show

Keen vintage shoppers get their therapy in a big field.

This is the Cookstown Antique and Vintage show, taking place outdoors on a ten acre field. More than seventy dealers, 150-odd tables, 8 hours in which to browse, shop and seek out little gems, great finds and the perfect gift. Now in year three, the Cookstown antique show has attracted a solid fan base - people who love old things and who can't resist the chance to find their next vintage treasure.

Dealers are coming from all parts of Ontario - a dozen from Simcoe County - plus a few from Quebec. Visitors can find a very wide range of antiques, retro and collectibles, with specialists in vintage glass, pottery, early advertising, midcentury modern furniture and lighting, art, jewellery and more.

Shoppers say that they enjoy the casual outdoor environment - browsing antique and vintage displays, taking a break amongst the food trucks, and the fun of finding a great little treasure.

The Steam Show grounds are at 4635 Victoria St. W. in Cookstown.  Admission is $12, kids under 13 are free and on-site parking is also free.
