FAQ

What is the Duluth Junk Hunt?

A three-day indoor market that happens every spring and fall in beautiful Duluth, MN. Hand-picked vendors come from all over the state of MN and beyond bringing in the most amazing vintage & re-purposed finds! Definitely the best junkin’ in town!

Where is the Duluth Junk Hunt?

We have outgrown every venue in town, so our markets will now exclusively be held at the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center! {Thank you for helping us reach this level!}

Spring location: DECC Arena & Paulucci Hall
Fall location: DECC South Pioneer Hall & Link

Where should I park?

There is a large parking lot & ramp right at our venue, the DECC. The DECC does charge $10 per vehicle per day to park on site... so carpool with a friend!

You could also park anywhere in Canal Park & walk over via the blue pedestrian lift bridge (the Minnesota Slip Bridge).

OR you could park anywhere in Downtown Duluth & walk over via the Skywalk.

Does my child need a ticket?

Kids under 12 years old are free! However please remember that during peak times, strollers can be a little bit difficult to maneuver due to the high shopper volume! We'd recommend coming Friday or Saturday afternoon if you plan on bringing little ones.

The Duluth Mom has graciously offered to provide a new moms space at the Duluth Junk Hunt—look for signs pointing to the "Mother's Room!"

Do I need cash?

Yes! The day-of admission ticket requires cash, and most of our vendors prefer cash. (Some of our vendors will accept checks or credit cards, but cash is usually king!) FYI – the DECC does have an ATM on site.

Is there food there?

Yes! The venue will have its concession stand open for business. There will also be a Farmer’s Market section featuring local foods & flowers!
