More than 180 dealers of affordable antiques will gather in the Historic Downtown Petaluma for the Petaluma Antique Faire, located about 15 minutes from Capri Creek. This one-day, free event will house an eclectic mix of estate jewelry, linens, furniture, art, kitchenware, vintage decor, and books – there’ll definitely be something for everyone. Organizers expect over 8,000 established collectors and first time buyers, and this year they’ve expanded the fair to include an additional street of booths.

Despite the crowds that are expected, the Petaluma Antique Faire promises to be a relaxing and enjoyable experience in a lovely setting. The landmark Mason Building will host a breakfast in its gorgeous dining room for only $8, a Faire special. And there will be the usual selection of restaurants and brick and mortar shops open for business along the streets. This event is part of a weekend festival also featuring a parade and agricultural fair.
