✨ CELEBRATING OUR VENDORS ✨

HVC Markets simply wouldn’t be what they are without the incredible people who choose to spend their weekends, pack up their vehicles, haul in their displays, and share their businesses and talents with our community.

From the early mornings and heavy lifting to the beautiful displays and countless hours spent creating, sourcing, and preparing - we know just how much goes into making it all happen!

Every market is made special by the unique mix of vintage curators, makers, artists, collectors, and small business owners who bring it all to life.

We are so grateful for every vendor who has been part of our journey over the years. Thank you for believing in what we do and for helping us create something special!

The heart of every HVC Market is our vendors. ♥️

✨VENDOR SPOTLIGHT✨

We’re so excited to welcome back Cadence Weapon to our Hello Spring Market!

“True vintage is made from natural materials and was made with a higher standard of craftsmanship,” says Cadence Weapon. “It was built to last. This made me think of the classic hip-hop that I grew up listening to.”

On his new record, Forager, Cadence Weapon plays the role of archivist and lyricist, curator and collector. Forager is the work of keen eyes and ears, a restless curiosity for depth of knowledge and appreciation for detail. Replete with fashion history and trivia, from “Raghouse” to “501XX” to “Fall 2012 Couture,” and shaped by the rap greats of his formative years, Forager wears its influences on its sleeve.

To celebrate the release Cadence Weapon is hosting a series of “Forager Markets” that will bring his music and thrifting worlds together in free events, including vintage pop-ups, exclusive vinyl and more. Stop by his booth at HVC Market this weekend to pick up some good quality vintage clothing and an exclusive copy of his new record.

Together, they’re serving up flavour-packed sauces with a little attitude and a lot of heart!
