VinylCon! Philadelphia Returns for a Weekend of Records and Music Memorabilia Featuring Vendors from Across the Region

Philly’s vinyl community will take center stage this fall as VinylCon! Philadelphia returns for a two-day celebration of music, collecting, and culture. Taking place Saturday, November 1, and Sunday, November 2, this event is a must for crate diggers, audiophiles, and anyone who appreciates the art of analog sound.

Billed as a “music collector’s daydream come to life,” VinylCon! is far more than a record fair — it’s a community-driven festival dedicated to discovery. Expect a massive marketplace of rare and hard-to-find vinyl, with dealers traveling from across the region and beyond to showcase an unmatched selection of records spanning every genre imaginable. From local collectors clearing out their shelves to professional record stores and vintage music dealers, attendees will find everything from first pressings and limited releases to forgotten gems waiting to be rediscovered.

While vinyl is the main focus, there will also be other recorded media, music memorabilia, and ephemera available — making it the perfect stop for anyone who collects music in all its forms. Tickets are available at thevinylcon.com.

In addition to the sprawling record marketplace, VinylCon! will feature:

• Vinyl-only DJs spinning all weekend long, setting the tone with curated sets while attendees dig through crates.

• A full bar for those who want to enjoy a drink while they browse.

• Sponsor activations and pop-ups highlighting music-related brands, labels, and creators.

• A family-friendly and accessible environment, ensuring collectors of all ages and backgrounds can join in the fun.
