One of the special things about FilKONtario is our Filk Marketplace. Once again in 2026 the main hall foyer will be filled with tables of wonderful music CDs, crafts, food, vintage items, and geeky trinkets for sale that will be sure to catch your eye (or ear!). You never know what you’ll come across browsing the articles on offer.
Beginning both Saturday and Sunday starting at 10:00 a.m. and running at each individual vendor’s discretion, the market is a great place to find that special or unique item, all while supporting the convention and the filkers in the community. The market will have dedicated spaces to purchase items from our guests, a table whose sales will go directly to supporting FilKONtario, and spots featuring other makers, bakers, and resellers. Be sure to stop by each vendor’s table throughout the weekend.
Spaces are open for vendors for the 2026 Filk Marketplace. If you have wares, we’ll provide the place for you to receive coin! Contact Karen Paddison at paddison@xplornet.ca with the subject line “Filk Marketplace” to inquire about reserving your spot.

Please note: Due to the unpredictability of cross-border electronic money transfers, most of our vendors will attempt to take several forms of payment but may run into technical difficulties. Please be prepared to pay with cash just in case.
