Little City Thrifty

Clear your closets, make room on your shelves, and get ready to shop: Little City Thrifty Vintage Market returns to Providence on October 3 & 4, 2026, bringing nearly 100 vintage booths to the WaterFire Arts Center for one of New England’s largest curated indoor vintage shopping events. Shoppers can expect a packed weekend of unique finds, featuring size-inclusive vintage clothing, home décor, vinyl records, books, barware, art, collectibles, ephemera, jewelry, accessories, and plenty of wonderfully unexpected pieces in between. With vendors traveling from across Rhode Island and 11 other states, the market brings together an eclectic mix of knowledgeable vintage dealers carrying one-of-a-kind items sourced from all over the country and beyond, with something to discover at just about every price point. Vintage shopping requires snacks, and the weekend will feature two favorite local restaurants, a bakery, coffee from New Harvest Coffee Roasters, and a full bar from Inside Voices serving beer, specialty cocktails, and mocktails. Little City Thrifty runs noon to 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, with a special 11 a.m. Early Buying Hour each day for shoppers who want first dibs on vendors’ freshest and rarest finds. Early Buying Hour ticket holders will also receive a limited-edition Little City Thrifty tote bag printed in Providence by Hungry Ghost Press. Advance tickets are strongly encouraged, as Little City Thrifty frequently sells out. Tickets start at $8 in advance and $10 at the door, if still available. Entry includes a drink ticket, redeemable for a small beverage from participating beverage sponsors or a discount toward a full-sized drink.
