Consignor Pick-Up
Wednesday September 3 1:30pm-9:30pm
We are located in the Holshouser Building. It is the large round brown building located between the NC Fairgrounds Flea Market and the NC State Hunt Horse Complex.
The fairgrounds address is:
4285 Trinity Rd Raleigh, NC 27607
We are not at the Hunt Horse complex. The event is on the main fairgrounds property. The front gate that was previously used is now permanently closed. We are in the middle of the fairgrounds property.
Gate #9 (Main Event Entrance)
Enter from Trinity Road (horse complex was on your right if you are driving east). Bear to the right and follow that road around. We are on the right immediately after the little white church. Look for a large white semi parked outside the round building. Enter through the double doors up front under the enclosed walk-way.
Gates #5 or #6
If you enter from the gates off Youth Center Rd (the road that divides the back of the main NC State Fair property and the Hunt Horse complex), keep left until you see the round dome building. You will see the back of the building first.
The annual State Fair in October hosts "The Village of Yesteryear" in this building. The Holshouser building is in the middle of the NC State Fairgrounds, nestled in trees between the Children's Barnyard and the Maintenance Building.
Thursday Football Game Night Directions:
NC State will be hosting a football game starting at 7pm Thursday August 28th.
Gate #9 will likely be closed for football parking.
Enter & come in Gate #5 or #6 off Youth Center Drive
(975 Youth Center Dr. Raleigh, NC 27607)
We highly suggest using Hillsborough Rd and turning onto Youth Center Drive. Come along where dog show campers are parked and turn into gate #5 or #6. Drive towards the LEFT side of the gravel driveway until you come to the back side of the Holshouser building.
*If in doubt, google NC State Fair property map*
Updates will be posted on Facebook.
Traffic is usually light after the game starts. We will stay open as late as you need on Thursday night if you want to come just a little later and still shop opening day deals.
