The Premier Vintage Toy & Pedal Care Show In The U.S.A.
Some years ago, a group of Toy & Pedal Car guys headed up by Bob Ellsworth (R.I.P.), organized and held the first Southeastern Pedal Car Show. For years it was held in Greenville, SC but I Have been told that it was held in Atlanta, GA., in years past as well. Later, the show was held in Asheville, NC. Pigeon Forge, Tennessee has been the place for our show the past 15 years. Bob ran it there for many years before his health began to fail and then Al Nyquist took the show over for several years. It was passed on to me 9 years ago and my wife work work very hard to carry on the tradition. The show has doubled in size and is still growing. The 2021 show has grown by 20% and was a sold-out show! We limit the show to pre-1960 Toys, Pedal Cars, Advertising, Ride on Toys and Petroleum related items.
I am a disabled retired Air Force veteran, and a crazy addicted old toy, and race car nut. I have been restoring, selling, and collecting toys for over forty years now. We out grew our previous show location and we have sold out of tables and spaces for the 2021 show. Our show is the largest Vintage Toy & Pedal Car show anywhere! We offer indoor vending with four banquet rooms in the Hotel Conference Center. We have 88 eight-foot tables. It is very convenient to the outside vending area. We offer outside vending in a reserved lot with 150 spaces available. Spaces are 10 x 20 feet each. Tables and spaces must be reserved in advance, as we have sold out the show previously. Set-up for the show begins in Wednesday at nine AM. Our venues looks like this:
Our show is a four-day event from Wednesday to Saturday. Hours are 9 AM to 5 PM daily rain or shine! Vendors and folks come from all over to join in the fun. It is both an indoor and outside show. We have 90 tables with room to expand. We conclude on Saturday with a fun free vendor auction! It has grown into a ball of fun selling several hundred lots of treasures, on a no charge no reserve basis! Auctioneer service is provided b Dell Harper of Kraft Auction.
Most importantly is that we offer free parking and show admission. Discounted rooms for the show are provided by the Music Road Resort and Conference Center. Rooms sell out fast. Discount rates are offered until April 15th, or until reserved rooms are sold.
