First Monday, Canton began more than a century ago and has grown to become the largest outdoor vendor and flea market in the world. This epic event takes place each month on the 4 days preceding the first Monday of the month. Spread across over 450 acres, the event is home to makers, pickers, creators, and thrifters who come together to sell items ranging from antiques, fashion, home furnishings, and more. It’s often been said, if you can’t buy it or sell it at First Monday Trade Days, it can’t be bought or sold.” Millions of visitors enjoy the shopping adventure of a lifetime during this one of a kind market. The festival grounds are adjacent to Historic Downtown Canton, Texas and offer a full range of festival foods, entertainment, as well as several R.V. Campgrounds.

My husband and I have been to Trader's Day every year during our decades of marriage. Our favorite place to shop is the area of open booths all around the civic building that we nicknamed "The Bad Lands". I love how the vendors bargain with you unlike the covered pavilions. Comfortable shoes, rolling cart, and dress for the weather are all a must!

My husband and I stayed at Stache Away Inn on the mountain during our shopping trip. All of vendors on the mountain are friendly and provided great tips and information. The atmosphere was family friendly and very convenient for taking a break from shopping. We did not shop are eat on the mountain. Alcohol is not served at any of the establishments, but you can bring your own.
