SOUTH BEND RECORD SHOW

ABOUT EVENT

Nestled in the heart of the Midwest, the South Bend Record Show has earned its reputation as Indiana’s largest and one of the Midwest’s most prominent vinyl record events.

Vendors and collectors from across the region descend on South Bend siz times a year to fill 100 tables with 100,000 pieces of used and new merchandise. Discover new and pre-loved LPs, 45s, CDs, cassettes, memorabilia, posters, T-shirts, vintage stereo gear, and record storage supplies. You’ll find an abundance of classic rock, pop, metal, punk, prog rock, and ’80s favorites. Select vendors carry blues, jazz, R&B, soul, country, bluegrass, and other genres. A must-visit event for music lovers!

“One of the best, most anticipated record shows in the entire three-state region! This show is no joke. I see larger crowds as the event continues to grow. This show is REALLY that good!”
