Thriftathon Urban Reclaim Market Comes to Elk Grove Old Town Plaza on November 7

ELK GROVE, Calif. — People interested in vintage clothing, secondhand finds and local makers can visit Thriftathon: Urban Reclaim Market on Saturday, November 7, 2026, at Old Town Plaza.

Where and when

The City of Elk Grove’s events calendar lists the market from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Old Town Plaza, 9615 Railroad Street. It is described as a community event focused on reuse, circular fashion and supporting independent sellers.

The calendar says the event features more than 40 vendors with clothing, vintage items and original artwork, a community clothing swap and a DJ set. The market promotes the idea that buying and exchanging existing goods can extend the useful life of clothing and reduce waste.

What to bring

Visitors hoping to take part in the clothing swap should confirm the organizer’s accepted-item rules before bringing bags of garments. The city’s listing does not specify exact admission prices, if any, individual booth costs, swap limits or parking availability, so those details should not be invented.

Businesses and vendors participating in public events may have their own payment methods and return rules. Shoppers should verify prices directly and use normal precautions when purchasing items.

About the event

The listing says the market originally launched in 2021 under a different name and was rebranded in 2025. It aims to support small local enterprises and offer a family-friendly gathering in historic Elk Grove.

Check the official city listing or the event organizer before traveling, as outdoor schedules can change.
