Following the massive energy of its March debut, the Forever Fly Vintage Market returns for its second edition! This time, we are completely swapping out the winter layers for the ultimate summer wardrobe. Taking over the patio at the L1 Retail Store once again, this edition is all about celebrating sun-soaked South Side culture, style, and nostalgia.
While our March kickoff set the bar high, this summer market brings a brand-new focus. We’re bringing back a few crowd-favorites alongside a fresh lineup of local collectors, independent creatives, and visionaries. Come ready to dig through rare retro threads, timeless literature, and incredible art.
A local food truck will be serving up fresh eats, and we are welcoming back our favorite Pilsen paleta cart for ice cream and frozen treats under the open sky. DJ will be announced soon!
Come out to gather, vibe, refresh your summer closet, and support local businesses. The best style never really leaves—it just finds a sunnier patio to shine on.
