VINTAGE MARKET DAYS®

Michele Carlton fell in love with Vintage Market Days®, an upscale vintage event where strangers from all across the country come together for one unforgettable weekend, and brought it to Southeast Louisiana.

Michele was introduced to Vintage Market Days® in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 2014, where she sold her homemade candles, and she realized this event was more than an average craft fair, flea market or barn sale. She was instantly captivated by the environment and said to herself, “I’ve got to bring this event to Louisiana.”

So, five years ago, Michele became the owner of Vintage Market Days® of Southeast Louisiana, which attracts amazing vendors from all around the United States who are picked for variety, originality and quality to create “the vintage experience.” In addition to vendors, live music and unique food trucks fill the arena.

“When I invite you to our event, I want you to be our guest and enjoy shopping, the live music, eating at our food trucks, or just wandering around with your best friends enjoying a girls’ getaway or a family weekend together,” says Michele.

Michele is planning the next Vintage Market Days® for October 15-17 in Amite at the Florida Parishes Arena with a “Holly Jolly” Christmas theme. About 90 vendors plan to showcase their talents with vintage, home décor, clothing, jewelry, antiques, art, garden and so much more.

“Vintage Market Days® is my passion,” says Michele. “During the process, you watch everyone build up the event together, take it down together, and become a family. My favorite thing is seeing the smiles on customer’s faces when they enter and when they leave. They become part of our Vintage Market Days® family, and we love to see them returning again and again.”
