Superstar DJ Record Fair coming in October


Record fans rejoice! Brooklyn Flea's 4th annual Superstar DJ Record Fair is slated for Sat., Oct. 8, at the Smorgasburg food market on the W'burg waterfront. It will feature about 20 vintage record dealers, plus 20 vendors as part of the US debut of the Independent Label Market, a very cool London event that's expanding to Berlin in September, then making its US debut at our record fair in October. ILM features top labels from the world's best music cities, with the heads of those labels manning the booths, and there are some excellent/top labels already onboard for the Flea event.  

Also tentatively planned are: a kids' disco component for the event; as well as album-cover face painting! And with all the food from Smorgasburg available, it's worth a visit for music fans and non-music fans alike.

If you would like to participate in this event as a dealer, send me an email and I'll forward it to the organizer. Table rates are reasonable, and the crowds should be insane.
