TORONTO, March 20, 2026 — I can not emphasize enough how this is easily THE vintage fashion event of the season, and the spring Toronto Vintage Show is returning from March 28-29 to the Queen Elizabeth Building, Exhibition Place, for two days of style-watching, shopping and discovery.
The Toronto Vintage Show is an archive of style, where timeless fashion is celebrated, rediscovered and ready for the spotlight once again. Shop decades of curated fashion at Canada’s largest sale of vintage clothing, jewelry, handbags, vintage designer and menswear. Vintage lovers will also find mid-century décor, plus art along with classic barware and kitchenware.
“I’m not really sure if the hunt is better than the ‘kill’,” says Catherine Knoll, Show Manager. “I mean the thrill of the hunt and the joy of the discovery are certainly part of what makes vintage shopping so much fun – but pouncing on that super special piece is also incredibly exhilarating! The Toronto Vintage Show has tens of thousands of items all under one roof making it a destination for one-of-a-kind finds steeped in style and character.”
From three-piece suits and wedding gowns to streetwear and timeworn denim, fashion lovers will find items dating from the 1950’s to the early 2000s across styles, sizes and price ranges. Shop over 120 vendors who offer affordable fashion, designer luxury and everything in between.
Discover vintage in all its forms at the Toronto Vintage Show
- Own a piece of Canadian hockey history. That’s right! Sports fans will find plenty of sports-inspired apparel from jerseys to jackets at the Toronto Vintage Show. For hockey fans, channel Dave Hodge and Howie Meeker with this standout piece, a baby blue Hockey Night in Canada Blazer, for sale from LA Vintage. Instantly recognizable to generations of viewers, this iconic uniform evokes the nostalgia of a longstanding ritual that is woven into the fabric of Canadian culture.
Plus, gear up for this summer’s World Cup with a retro soccer jersey from Wave Two Vintage.
- Start with wardrobe classics. High-quality wardrobe staples are a great place for vintage newcomers to begin collecting. Well-made garments come from an era where craftsmanship was an art form. These items have stood the test of time, outliving trends to anchor timeless style. Start with tailored blazers and suits, worn-in denim or a classic trench coat, while holding space in your closet for something unexpected.
- Put a pin in the brooch revival. Brooches are having a major moment in 2026. Always classy, brooches add a ‘je ne sais quoi’ to coats, blazers and sweaters, elevating simple looks with a distinctive vintage twist.
