The Vintage Roundup is a curated, seasonal pop up event that exclusively features vintage and antique vendors only. We focus on items that are genuinely old—typically 20 years or older—so you won't find any handmade crafts, reproductions, or newly manufactured goods here.
Our goal is to bring together high-quality sellers who specialize in authentic vintage clothing, furniture, home décor, collectibles, and more. It's a destination for true vintage enthusiasts looking for one-of-a-kind, time-tested pieces.
We welcome antique/vintage vendors from all over!
If you’re interested in the arts, handmade goods and community involvement be sure to check out our sister event: Openbaar Market.

Every applicant is juried to ensure that The Vintage Roundup stays true to its mission of ONLY vintage/antique goods, while providing quality & variety. We’re very limited on space and cannot accommodate the mass vendor inquiry. Past vendors may be declined to allow new applicants a chance to participate.
Reasons for denial may include: Avoiding too much of a certain category, being unable to showcase your items to review (we can’t see what you have if your page is private!), goods do not fit the vintage/antique criteria.
We do not accept: Handmade, altered vintage, items newer than 20 years old, alcohol or CBD/THC vendors. -
Yes! There will always be an accepted vendor that may not be able to make it, even last minute! In the event an accepted vendor has a change of plans, we refer to our wait list in order. You can find it here!
ABOUT
Kristen Bradley and Sarah Minguela created The Vintage Roundup in 2021. Both longtime vintage lovers and sellers, they’d spent years sourcing, vending, and logging many miles in their vintage kiltie boots. The idea came naturally: build a curated vintage market where hardworking vendors could be seen, supported, and celebrated — a place where the vintage community could connect and champion sustainability.
Fast forward to today: The Vintage Roundup now features over 55 vendors, local food, and something old for everyone. It’s a seasonal, vintage‑only collective based in downtown Albany, NY, with occasional pop‑ups in surrounding areas. The duo has also expanded to host other markets, including Openbaar Market, which highlights handmade artists and community resources.
Kristen and Sarah’s focus has always been on creating an inclusive atmosphere and a community rooted in sustainability, good local food, and kick-ass, timeless vintage. This isn’t just a business — it’s a reflection of what they believe in.
