Come enjoy a fun weekend with friends and family! “Christmas in September” will include a visit from Mr. and Mrs. Santa Clause. Shop some of Alaska's trendiest small businesses, up-cyclers, designers and vintage collectors! We are also throwing a food truck festival with over 40 food vendors from all over Alaska, even Kenai and Fairbanks. It's going to be a blast!

Our purpose at Alaska Vintage Markets is to “Create a Space for Creative Alaskans”. We love supporting other local Alaskan businesses and we hope you can come out and support them as well! Some of the extra items you can enjoy: “Get your Family Christmas Photo on Hank the Moose”, “Create your own scarf or face mask using the Marbled Designs techniques”, “Get a Free color photo strip from our Photo Bus”, “Taste the harvest of fresh honey or chaga”, or “Take a special handmade unique gift for your loved ones (pens, pottery, art, leather goods, comic books from Tundra, earrings or fur Santas)”.

We are in the unheated barn, so dress warmly! We will have 20-foot walkways and space between vendors to enable social distancing. Food trucks will be generously spaced along the purple trail. Our vendors will be wearing masks, and we recommend that customers do too.

We have a Mommy and Toddler break room for tired shoppers. Weekend Pass is only $5 online at https://akvintagemarkets.ticketleap.com/christmasinseptember/ Or you can pay at the RED Event Gate.
