Overview

Oh Slow Vintage Market is a lifestyle festival where vintage, antique, and second-hand cultures blend together against the backdrop of the historical scenery of Incheon Open Port. Professional vintage sellers from across the country gather to showcase special items containing their unique tastes and stories, including vintage fashion, antique objects, retro accessories, and handicrafts. It is an event where you can stroll through the autumn Open Port, accompanied by busking, DJ performances, vintage photo zones, and various participatory programs, to discover the new value of old things and your own personal style.

Why go

Oh Slow Vintage Market brings together vintage fashion, antiques, retro accessories, and handicrafts from sellers across Korea, set against the historic backdrop of Incheon's Open Port district. The weekend adds busking, DJ sets, vintage photo zones, and hands-on programs, making it as much a stroll through old Incheon as a shopping trip.

Getting there from Seoul

Incheon Art Platform sits a short walk from Incheon Station, the western terminus of Seoul Subway Line 1, roughly an hour or so from central Seoul depending on your starting station. Trains run frequently all day, so no advance booking or reservation is needed.

Tips

  • Entry is free, but bring cash since individual vintage sellers may not all take cards
  • The market runs only on 24-25 October 2026, 11:00-18:00, so plan your visit within that weekend
  • Arrive earlier in the day for the best selection, as one-of-a-kind vintage items sell out

Best for: vintage lovers, photographers, antique collectors, music lovers.
