Next time you visit Alameda, stop by the largest antiques show in Northern California! Michaan's Auctions hosts the Alameda Point Antiques Faire, which is listed as one of America's Best Flea Markets by Architectural Digest. It has also been featured by major news outlets, such as SF Gate, San Francisco Chronicle, San Jose Mercury News, and Contra Costa Times.

Browse through wares of the over 800 dealers' booths while enjoying the stunning San Francisco skyline. Rest assured that any of the items, which include vintage and antique home decorations, clothing, furniture, jewelry, art, pottery, books, collectibles, and more, are authentic, as everything displayed has to be proven to be twenty years old or more.

To make the most out of your antiquing experiencing, be sure to follow these expert tips, given by experienced antiquers. To prevent being targeted for price hikes, leave brand labels at home and be sure to only wear comfortable clothing. Here, cash is king -- avoid long lines and ATM fees by withdrawing money ahead of time. Snag quality wares by arriving early, but stay until the end for the bargains of sellers try to get rid of left-overs. And of course, be sure to talk to the vendors: not only to sharpen your haggling skills, but also to meet interesting people from around the world.   

Admittance fees are hinged upon entrance times, ranging from $15 for a 6 AM entrance to $5 for a 9 AM entrance. Children are allowed free admittance; the fair begins to shut down at 3 PM. Food vendors provide lunch while Antiques by the Bay, Inc. provides transportation to and from the fair, including free parking and shuttle services.
