Announcements
2.16.22: We do finally have a new, signed multi-year contract with the Scioto County fair board. So the good news is that Trade Days will remain in Lucasville for the next several years. The not-as-good news is that the new rate for renting the fairgrounds went up very substantially. Sadly, this has necessitated an increase for gate admission beginning with the April 2022 event and an increase in vendor space pricing beginning with the June 2022 event. Starting in April 2022, admission for adults will be $7, with kids 12 & under still FREE. Parking on the fairgrounds is still FREE also (limited availability, of course). Starting with the June 2022 event, all Midway spaces will be $50; the Shelter House and New Barn spaces will be $60. We do apologize for the inconvenience, but THE only alternative would have been to move the event elsewhere. Also keep in mind that space pricing and admission to our Chillicothe Trade Days events are staying the same.
NOTICE: A strong percentage of our vendors have already renewed their spaces from last year. So if you are planning to attend and need spaces for our spring show, call our business office during regular office hours, (phones are answered Monday through Thursday from 9:30 am to 3:30 pm). 1-937-728-6643.
IT IS OUR GOAL TO GET EVERYONE PARKED ON THE GROUNDS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. But remember, free parking is limited by capacity on the fairgrounds.
As always, set-up day is Friday. We begin admitting vendors at 12 noon. (VENDOR STICKERS MUST BE FIRMLY AFFIXED to the OUTSIDE lower left corner of your front windshield). Lucasville Trade Days officially opens to the public on Saturday morning at 7 am. “Early Bird Shoppers” are allowed in from 3 pm to 7 pm on Friday, at $7 per person, children under 12 are free.
