BLOOMINGTON, Minn. — The Mall of America invites shoppers to walk in a vintage wonderland this holiday season with the first-ever vintage market inside its iconic rotunda.

The two-day event spanning Dec. 2 and 3 will feature more than 20 hand-picked vendors with a focus on clothes, goods and accessories from the 80s, 90s, and Y2K eras, and beyond. The market's special holiday edition, Vintage Wonderland, is hosted by Totally Rad Vintage Fest (formerly known as Twin Cities Vintage Fest.)

“We are so totally stoked to be working with Mall of America to bring sustainable vintage shopping to Mall patrons this holiday season,” said Sarah Emerson, director of marketing at Totally Rad Vintage Fest. "As demand for sustainable, affordable, and high-quality products continues to grow, we aim to create accessible vintage shopping experiences that provide these products to consumers en masse."

Since 2020, Minnesotans have flocked to vintage fest events. Now, as the marketplace continues to grow each year, its organizers have toured more than 15 cities across the country, bringing affordable, sustainable and unique items to vintage enthusiasts. 

Representatives at the Mall of America said they're bringing the festival to the Huntington Bank Rotunda to offer even more variety to customers at the continent's largest shopping center.

"We are always looking to add new interactive concepts to the Mall and have yet to host an event quite like this," said Jill Renslow, MOA's chief business development and marketing officer. "We know Totally Rad Vintage Fest is the perfect team to bring this experience to life. They have continued to grow their brand over the years and are constantly coming up with new unique ways to attract a vast community of creative and sustainable shoppers.”
