Festival's Loppis
Since thousands of people of Scandinavian decent settled in the Jamestown area, there are many items representing the culture that can be found in the community. Some of these items are for sale in the Loppis Booth. Loppis in Sweden refers to a flea market usually managed by individual families in their own garage, barn or cellar. Scandinavian antiques, heirlooms, old as well as new items are offered in the Loppis Tent.


Are you looking for some Swedish glass including Orrefors and Kosta Boda, books, antiques, paintings? Will you find something
like grandma used to have?
Who knows what treasures will be sold this year!
