The Prescott Antique Show and Vintage Market has a wonderful history of organic growth over the years. Its roots lie in a local antique store in the 1980's whose owner had the idea to celebrate antiques and bring her wares to the downtown area. This grew into one of Arizona's most popular antique destinations, and with a few ownership changes over the years, it now calls the historic Rodeo Grounds its home, setting up shop twice a year and welcoming crowds of antique enthusiasts who come to browse.
The one-day Prescott Antique Show and Vintage Market is the largest event of its kind in Arizona. It draws vendors and visitors from across the state and beyond. With both indoor and outdoor venues, the market can be enjoyed rain or shine, although visitors usually enjoy nice weather here during the summer and early fall. What's more, this is a 100% non-profit affair, with all funds raised by the organizers donated to local historic preservation projects. This means that visitors can empty their pockets with pride knowing that they are preserving not only the actual antiques for sale, but also other historic sites!
The Prescott Antique Show and Vintage Market offers a wide variety of items for sale. Visitors will find china, marketing memorabilia, Americana through the ages, furniture, vintage jewelry, lighting, nautical items, automotive memorabilia and much more. Collectors are sure to find a few treasures, and casual shoppers will find plenty to reminisce about.
If you are in town for the Prescott Antique Show and Vintage Market, be sure to take time to visit Cortez Street just around the corner.
