TULSA, Okla. — Sunday is the third and final day of this year’s Vintage Tulsa Show.
The Vintage Tulsa Show returned to Tulsa for its 15th year on Friday, bringing antiques, collectibles and other vintage items to the Exchange Center at Expo Square, near 21st and Yale.
“Everybody’s got their own idea about the good old days, you’re going to find those things here that kind of bring back your memories,” said Gail Kinney, a promoter for event.
Kinney said she started the show with her husband.
“My husband and I are native Tulsans and we used to set up as antique dealers pretty much our entire adult lives, and just kind of got to a place in time where we felt like we wanted to start this venture and Tulsa got behind us and it just took off from there,” Kinney said.
Kinney said they are expecting around 8,000 to 9,000 people this weekend, bringing the event back to its pre-COVID glory days.
“We feel loved, I mean it’s just great, it’s like one big happy family with the vendors and that extends to the customers as well, they come out here to the show, they’re looking forward to it all year long, a lot of these people have been with us since the start, even on the customer side, and I mean it’s community, and it’s really very special,” Kinney said.
