Meet the Makers & Vintage Vendors at Magpie Market Fall Days
There’s a certain magic in finding a one-of-a-kind piece you didn’t know you were looking for, whether it’s a vintage trunk that’s begging to become your new coffee table, a repurposed farmhouse sign, or handcrafted jewelry made with love from adorable local boutiques. That’s the experience you’ll find at Magpie Market Days, happening September 26-28, 2025, at the Williamson County Fairgrounds in Marion, Illinois!
For three days, more than 100 upscale vendors from 13 states will transform the fairgrounds into a treasure hunter’s paradise. But Magpie isn’t just about shopping; it’s about the makers – the passionate small business owners who bring their creativity, craftsmanship, and stories to southern Illinois each year.
Vintage Collectors with a Story
Many of the vintage vendors you’ll meet at Magpie have spent years curating their collections. From mid-century modern furniture and antique farm tools to retro kitchenware and vinyl records, every booth tells a story. These aren’t just items; they’re pieces of history, carefully rescued and ready for a second life in your home.
Handmade & Heartfelt
If you love supporting small makers, Magpie is the perfect place to connect directly with artisans. You’ll find handmade candles, jewelry, pottery, and boutique clothing that reflect the maker’s unique style. Ask a vendor about their process, and you’ll walk away not just with a purchase, but with the story of how it was made.
Repurposed & Reinvented
Some of the most popular booths at Magpie feature repurposed and upcycled creations. Old doors become dining tables, vintage jars become light fixtures, and forgotten wood finds new life as farmhouse décor. These makers have a gift for seeing potential in the overlooked and turning it into something both beautiful and functional.
More Than a Market
And of course, it wouldn’t be Magpie without the extras that make the weekend an experience:
–Gourmet food trucks to keep you fueled while you browse.
–Live music all weekend to set the perfect shopping soundtrack.
–Plenty of spots for Instagram-worthy photos with your crew.
