Events

Anyone who says that shopping is not a sport is wrong. Especially Vintage shopping is like looking for a needle in a haystack, until you find the perfect item of clothing. Fortunately, Groningen helps you a bit with events such as VINO KILO and Klein Berlijn.

VINO KILO is a recurring event that is organized throughout Europe. At Vino Kilo you can not only shop but also get a lot of inspiration from all the unique people that are walking around.

Klein Berlijn is organized twice a year in the Markets of Groningen. You will not only find second-hand clothing here, but also interior items, old cameras and much more.

Let the vintage shopping begin!
