Fort Street is still Victoria's dealer corridor. Vancouver is scattered — Gastown vintage, Terminal Ave flea, Cloverdale on Sundays, plus the comic-and-toy cons (PNE Forum, Vancity Card Show, Fan Expo). Jump ahead for dated shows; shops stay put year-round.

antique · Victoria
A century-old dealer corridor. Two or three hours on foot covers most of it, with cafés so you don't have to rush. Late May through September is the sweet spot.
Fort Street, downtown to Rockland
Shop hours vary; best Tue–Sat

Sidney's antique and vintage stop on the way to the ferries. Easy to combine with a Beacon Ave stroll and the Saturday market when it's on.
Beacon Avenue, Sidney

vintage · Victoria
Not a dealer shop — a Victoria institution with hardware, marine gear, and enough odd surplus to scratch the same itch as a flea market.
1900 Store Street

Gastown curiosity shop: vintage clothing, oddments, and the kind of window that makes you cross the street. Pair with Deluxe Junk next door.
321 West Cordova Street

Long-running Gastown vintage clothing dealer. Strong on 20th-century wear; useful if you're hunting wearable antiques rather than furniture.

A tight cluster of antique and vintage rooms a few blocks from Queens Park Arena — handy the same day as an FVACC show.
12th Street, New Westminster
Tue–Sat

Multi-dealer mall in Surrey. Combine with a Sunday run to Cloverdale if you want a full Fraser Valley hunt.

Narrow alley shops with vintage clothing, records, and small antiques. Best as a downtown loop with Fort Street, not a furniture hunt.
Fan Tan Alley, Chinatown

antique · Fraser
Smaller Fraser Valley dealers and malls. Worth a detour if you're already at Cloverdale or heading to Abbotsford.
Downtown Langley / Fraser Highway
Tue–Sat

Village-scale vintage and consignment mixed with cafés. A gentler afternoon than Fort Street, good after a Saturday garage-sale loop.
Oak Bay Avenue
