Hundreds of people took a trip down memory lane this weekend at a massive vintage and collectibles show.
Nostalgiarama returned to Assiniboia Downs on Saturday with vendors selling everything from pop culture relics to antiques from bygone eras.
“You name it, it’s here,” Vic Gaggini, Nostalgiarama’s co-organizer, told CTV News. “Anything that brings back a memory – someone’s going to want it.”
Gaggini said 1,400 people had visited the sale by early afternoon and anticipated a record-breaking crowd for the annual spring event.
He said the show is a big draw for dedicated hobbyists looking to add to collections of diecast toys, Coca-Cola memorabilia, and comic books. However, Nostalgiarama also attracts casual shoppers of all ages.
“You’d be surprised at how many young people are actually buying these things,” he explained. “You have a box of records and it’ll be gone within a couple hours.”
Nostalgiarama 2025 wrapped up late Saturday afternoon.
