Come one, come all! The Great American Antiquefest will take place at Longbranch Park in Liverpool, NY on July 21, 9am to 5pm, and July 22 from 9am to 4pm. This is an event I wait for all year and schedule our summer plans around. There are generally anywhere from 200 to 300 dealers set up throughout the cool, shady park (so much better than an open field filled with tents), offering everything from beautifully restored furniture, to glassware, books, household wares and tools...pretty much anything you might be looking for.
I have found many, many fascinating treasures selling at affordable prices at this event for the last 10 years. Several food vendors provide a nice choice of items to eat whether you're wanting a snack or a meal; and drink stands dot the walkways throughout for liquid refreshment. Lots of fresh-squeezed lemonade!! Mmmmm!
Tickets are $6 a day, or a weekend pass for $7. Also, there is a $20 "setup shopper" pass for Friday which also will admit you the entire weekend.This is a fantastic setting for antiquing, one you shouldn't miss if you're in the area.

The antique also has some cool stuff for kids. Like kettlecorn! Mmmmmmm...
Yes, even kids can find a reason to go to this event! Kettlecorn, Lemonade, and the Pizza Hut booth is usually a big draw. Of course, they might even learn a little history or get interested in collecting, too!! Right, daughter of mine?!!! ;)
