The West Kentucky Antique & Vintage Market will be held at the West Kentucky Archery Complex (located at 3100 Grapevine Rd., Madisonville, KY) on June 28th and 29th. Hopkins County Tourist and Convention Commission is proud to host the event and showcase quality antique and vintage dealers from across the region. Dealer applications are still open if you are interested in setting up. Booth spaces are free if approved.
“There will be a wide variety of items available for shoppers, including vintage advertising, collectibles, fine antiques, country store items, vintage goods, glassware, and more,” said Colbi Ferguson, Hopkins County Tourist and Convention Commission Communications Director.
“The location of this Antique and Vintage Market falls right in the middle of the 150-mile Highway 41 Sale providing a strategic opportunity for the vendors as well as shoppers,” said Tricia Noel, Hopkins County Tourist & Convention Commission Executive Director.
The West Kentucky Antique & Vintage market will be open free to the public. Held rain or shine as vendor spaces will be located indoors. The event will take place from 8 am to 3 pm on Friday, June 28th and Saturday, June 29th.
KY Highway 41 Yardsale
While you’re browsing the market, don’t forget to explore the treasures waiting for you at the annual Kentucky Highway 41 Yardsale. This renowned sale stretches for miles along Highway 41 and 41A from Henderson (at the IN-KY state line) to Guthrie (at the KY-TN state line) and attracts vendors from far and wide, offering everything from antiques and crafts to clothing and home goods. It’s a shopper’s paradise with endless possibilities!
The event features hundreds of yard and garage sales set up along the Highway 41 and 41-A corridors through Henderson, Webster, Hopkins, Christian, and Todd counties in western Kentucky. It’s become a favorite summer excursion for flea market aficionados and trash-to-treasure pickers, said Tricia Noel, Executive Director of the Hopkins County Tourist and Convention Commission.
“This has been a popular event from the very beginning,” Noel said. “County residents love it. Groups and nonprofits benefit by setting up yard sale booths. And it brings people from surrounding states to Hopkins County. We receive a lot of calls from out-of-towners about it.”
Hopkins County cities along the route include Hanson, Madisonville, Earlington, Mortons Gap, Nortonville, and Nebo. Residents who live on or own property along Highway 41 or 41-A are encouraged to hold sales. “There’s no fee to participate,” Noel said. “All you have to do is set out tables and set up a yard sale.” People who don’t live along the route but wish to hold a sale should not set up in parking lots or other properties they don’t own without asking the owners’ permission.
