The Tri-State Antique Market occurs every first Sunday of the month of May through October with a minimum of 200 vendors per month.
“All collectibles are 30 years old or more,” said market manager Aaron Metzger, who has worked at the market since he was 8 years old. The business was founded by his father in 1985.
The market is held at the Lawrenceburg Fairgrounds, a 5-acre facility with a combination of modern and rustic chic, one mile west of Exit 16 on US 50.
A $4 admission is required for adults during market hours from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Free admission for children. Pets are allowed. Early morning shoppers are admitted during vendor set up at 6 a.m. without an additional fee.
Parking is free. Food and refreshments will be available.
More than half of the vendors are indoors or are under a cover, so the event will occur “rain or shine.”
