During Midsummer, Vintagetalli will travel around Finland and at the same time acquire products for sale. Online store orders can be picked up and we will deliver them next time again in the first week of July.
Our summer program also includes visiting a few antique and vintage events as a customer. Here are our top 4
As we travel around the events of the summer, it is of course also in our thoughts and hopes to make discoveries, and for them, the events have sometimes gone with better, sometimes with less success. In addition to looking for goods, visiting antique and vintage events is a reason for us to visit great places that we might not otherwise go to.
A third good reason to go into traffic is the industry's entrepreneurs and customers, whom you have gotten to know through the same interest. People create the atmosphere of summer events, which is worth experiencing even if old objects are not (yet) your thing.
Fiskars antique days 4-7 July 2024
This is our every summer "must" item. The event takes place in Raasepori, in the beautiful Fiskars Ruukki area, and the event can be recommended just because of the setting.
The event gathers industry sellers from all over Finland both outdoors and indoors. In addition to entrepreneurs, there are also flea market sellers in the outer area. The interior exhibitors, on the other hand, are mainly entrepreneurs in the antique and vintage industry.
The restored industrial buildings in the area offer cafes, restaurants and accommodation.
Entrance to the event costs 10 euros

Billnäs antique days 4-7 July 2024
On the same trip to Fiskars, our car also stops at Ruukki in Billnäs. The Billnäs event is therefore organized at the same time as Fiskars, and the distance between the events is only 10 kilometers. The event advertises on its website that it is the most beautiful antique event in Finland. I won't argue!
The sellers are all inside the industrial iron building. On the other side of the road, there is also an extensive spare parts bank suitable for traditional builders.
On the way from Billnäs to Fiskars, there are many yard flea markets that are worth stopping by.
A day ticket to the event costs 10 euros

Vintage market, Puotila 29.6.
We will miss the event this time, but we have to recommend it!
The Vintage Market, organized by Vintage Style Events, gathers several industry vendors in a wonderful milieu at the Puotila manor on June 29. The sellers of the event are entrepreneurs in the field, who are united by passion and appreciation for old goods. Each of them has their own recognizable style, twist and vision of how to raise old objects to the glory they deserve. What makes the event interesting is the personal and recognizable style of each seller and the sales tables decorated with pietet.

Antiques and finds, Häkkilä estate July 20-21.
You should jump on the Pieksämäki train in July. Häkkilä estate's Antiques and Discoveries event is not as big as the aforementioned events, but once again it can be recommended for its atmosphere.
There are sellers both indoors and outdoors and they are mainly entrepreneurs in the field.
Admission to the event is 10 euros

Happy Midsummer!
