In from Show Co-Chairman Jamie Houdeshell: We have sold about 115 tables at this point so I would imagine with last minute contracts we should be close to 130 tables. That is about what we normally have. We always have really good attendance because of the 300+ dealer antique show which is held across the parking lot from our show.
Show Date: Saturday, 18 February 2012
Show Time: 9:00 am – 2:00 pm
Public Admission: $3.00 (*Fairgrounds Parking is $5.00) *plenty of parking available.
Early Bird Admission: 7:00 am – 9:00 $25.00 You get in there while the dealers are setting up!
Show Location: The show is in the RHODES CENTER building at the Ohio State Fairgrounds complex. The Ohio State Fairgrounds is located at 717 E. 17th Avenue, go west off I-71 at Exit 111. For driving directions and fairgrounds maps, click here. The showroom is huge, well lighted, and has wide aisles for shoppers, with plenty of space between the tables for the dealers.

Weather: Link to the weather forecast for Columbus Ohio.
Shoppers Bonus: The famous Scott Antique Show is also the same day, also in the fairgrounds complex, so you can spend the day and hit both great shows, and find tons of treasures. Just walk across the street, do not move your car, or you will have to pay for parking again.
Extra-early Bird Bonus: There will be a fun Hospitality Party on Friday night from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm (or later – it’s a lot of fun!).
