Greetings, Flea Market Vendors, and welcome to the 2026 Season!

 

This year, we're excited to make a few changes to the Vintage Depot Flea Market. We're working to create a bigger, more organized event for the local vintage community to enjoy. Our hope is to become a destination event where vendors can sell their finds and shoppers can discover unique treasures.   

 

First, we have committed to five events this season — May thru September, held on the third Saturday of each month (except for July, as we are trying to avoid Shipwreck Days in Anacortes). You may choose to sign up for just one event or all five.  

 

Second, we’re excited about increasing our reach through a more widespread promotional campaign, focusing on print materials and online marketing. We want to get the word out and will be sharing promo materials that vendors can use to help spread the word.

 

Finally, we’ve changed the booth fee structure. This year, we’re requiring not only the $50 booth fee, but also an additional $50 reservation fee, which can either be returned after set up or rolled over to a future date. This fee is only refunded if you set up and is intended to discourage last-minute cancellations for booth spaces that would otherwise go to vendors on the waiting list. 

 

Please look out for new signage leading up to the event dates, as well as some other surprises we have in store for the market. Hopefully you’ll find them as fun and eye-catching as we do, and we hope they’ll help draw the level of crowds we’d all like to see this season. 

 

If you know any booksellers, record collectors, or anyone who fixes old vintage electronics or musical instruments — or works with vintage fabrics, weaving, or upcycled items — please let them know about the flea market! We want to create a great, eclectic event for all. 

 

Please get in touch if you have any questions, my name is Jason. You can reach me by email at fleamarket@bellinghamcoinshop.com I’m also available to meet in person or over the phone should you need help with your planning.

 

Anyhow, glad to be here, please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need anything. Again, welcome to the 2026 Vintage Depot Flea Market Season!
