Raven Hall, Alaska State Fairgrounds
2075 Glenn Hwy. Palmer
FREE Admission
Do sunny, longer days have you in the mood for a seasonal closet refresh? How would you like to shop from a selection of thousands of high-quality items at 60-90% off retail prices, all under one roof! Spring is just around the corner, and so is the next Consign49 Consignment Sale!
Consign49 hosts a four-day event each spring and fall, in which over 200 local community members bring new and gently-used clothing, accessories and home décor items together to form a large-scale resale pop-up. Each consignor individually prices and tags each item, and items are dropped off approximately one day before the sale begins. Consign49 Team Members work to organize all items, so everything can be easily shopped according to category and size. There is also a dedicated boutique section, in which local boutiques have discount and clearance items for sale. In addition, there is a “vendor row” where local businesses will have booths for sharing their products and services.
Consign49 is a smart, sustainable way to shop, earn money and extend the lifecycle of high-quality items! Consignors are motivated to do some spring cleaning, while also earning extra cash. Shoppers get the opportunity to buy brand name items, or much needed seasonal items, for a fraction of retail prices. Additionally, many items that go unsold at the end of the event will be donated to local charities in need. For the spring event, a large portion of donations will be going to the MY House homeless youth center.
The Consign49 Spring 2021 Event will be held April 15th-18th at Raven Hall at the Alaska State Fairgrounds in Palmer, Alaska. Admission and parking are free, all major credit cards are accepted, and dressing rooms will be available for trying on clothing items. Hours are 9am – 8pm, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and from 9am – 5pm on Sunday. On Sunday the 18th, many remaining items will be marked half price, depending on whether the individual consignor has chosen to put the item into the half-price sale.
