Sad news for me, as I've been going to the Chantilly Show forever!

The DC Big Flea is hosted there as well, which is a great overall antique show.

Default Wow!

I am sure the show is not going to "go away" - Joe will find a new venue to host it!

I would welcome it in Charlotte NC! The vintage around Charlotte is non existent compared to the Chantilly show

I'd love to see it moved to Charlotte also. Charlotte could use a show.

About a 12 hour drive for me from Central FL. Have passed each time I had a chance to set up there recently. New sites mentioned thus far would be 10-12 hour drive so really makes little to no difference to me. Those who live right there and are complaining about the traffic, be grateful that you live in the northeast where every big show drive is easily made the same day. You’ve got Philly, White Plains, Shriners, Hofstra, Chantilly, when the National was in Cleveland. Nationals in Chicago are a bit tougher but try 19 hours from Central FL before you start complaining. Closest significant vintage show down here is Chantilly at 12 hours right now.

According to Trade Card Database there are over 100 shows between now and the end of the year in Florida alone, some have to have vintage. If not be the only guy there with it, you will sell much more than being a small fish in a big pond at a huge show.

Long drive for Chantilly. How about Philly?

I hope so, but I saw what happened to the Long Beach show. Site sold, show no more.

How about bringing it back to Richmond? Though I'm sure there are other spaces available in the NoVA or Baltimore area.

I don't see the Chantilly Show being moved to Maryland because that would bring it too close to the Philly Show, which Joe D. also runs or co-runs. Taking it to Richmond or a bit further south (Raleigh, NC?) is my guess, if Joe D. doesn't find another suitable location in No. Va. The key may be where the majority of Chantilly dealers are willing to travel to.

If they can't find a new venue in northern Virginia, I'm guessing they will move it to the Fairgrounds in Richmond (same location as the old TUFF Stuff shows).

Richmond for the win! Tuff Stuff flourished here for years.

I'm sorry to hear this. While it was never of any benefit from a vintage autograph perspective, I have fond memories of working it many years ago.
