Retro Helsinki – Vintage, Design and Collecting Fair
Oct 17 – 18, 2026
Kaapeliaukio 3, 00180 Helsinki
At the Retro Helsinki fair, the Cable Factory’s Merikaapelihalli fills with fascinating antique, vintage, and design vendors from across Finland, their tables laden with treasures. Bring a friend along to share the joy of collecting, meet knowledgeable experts, and discover unique finds!
On the second floor, visitors interested in 21st-century vintage will find a new “Urban Vintage” themed area, created in collaboration with the Renet Reuse Network (Renet Uudelleenkäyttöverkosto ry).
Throughout the event, the Vesa & Masa Vintage Duo will entertain visitors with music at the Aarreasema 110 stand. Collectible treasures from the 1950s and 60s, curated by Vesa Haaja and Matti Saloranta, will also be available for purchase at their shared stand.
The event also features a pop-up café by Cable Factory’s Kahvibaari, serving barista-quality specialty coffees alongside sweet and savory treats. Restaurant Hima & Sali will be open, offering a soup lunch and other mouth-watering delicacies, as well as a wide selection of beverages!
