The Nanaimo Record Show

Big thanks to all the vendors, customers, food truckers and helpers that made yesterday such a success! See you all in 364 days or north in the fall for our Comox Valley Show. Keep diggin'!

This popped into our feed today. 8 years ago! Back when we shoe horned into Branch 10. Super fun first few shows there. Loved drinking a Newcastle and selling sides.

Our date for the next Nanaimo Record Show is Sunday, April 21st, 11AM-4PM, 2024. Vendor tables are sold out! Quickest sell out ever. 43 tables of vinyl treasures are being prepared. JLA Food Truck will be on site for delicious Caribbean cuisine.

Thanks to all that made it happen! Super fun day. A kajillion records, JLA rockin' the food truck and hundreds of smiling faces. See you all in 363 days.

Our friends from CHEK dropped by to see what the record show was like. A fun segment with some familiar faces. You might even spot yourself digging!

Thanks to all the customers, vendors, volunteers and Cadets that made the record show a success! Our April 16th show was fantastic! Fun to see the variety of offerings and arm loads of records being toted out. Look for a Courtenay Record Show in October. Other wise we hope to see you next year.

Our friends at the freshly minted Mid-Island Music Archive will be in attendance on Saturday. The organization is a community based initiative to preserve and document the musical heritage of our region. It's a crowd sourced wiki page created by those that lived it!

If you could find just one record you REALLY wanted, what would it be?

Some times opportunities just present themselves. Someone's personal circumstances have opened up the last table for the record show. If you don't have a lot of records we also have a vendor with a half table available. Message us if inclined.

Randy the poster guy has been living up to his name! He's pitched in and been doing some postering for us. Woot woot!

Truth!

We have a few spots available for vendors. PM us for details if you are inclined to see the world from the other side of the table!

We're back! Saturday, April 16th, 2022! Bowen Park Auditorium with dealers from around the island and mainland. Show runs from 11am-4pm.
