Round Top Antique Show Tickets 2026: Which Venues Charge

Round Top Finder Editorial

Do you need tickets for the Round Top Antique Show? Mostly no. Of the 47 venues we track, only two sell general admission tickets this fall: Marburger Farm and the Big Red Barn. Nearly everything else is free to walk into, and a few Warrenton fields charge for parking instead.

Prices below are what we have on file as of October 1, 2026. Ticket fees change, so always confirm on the venue's own ticket page before you buy.

The two venues that charge admission

Venue Dates General admission Buy tickets
Marburger Farm Oct 27–31 $15 ($18.26 with fees and taxes) marburgerfarm.com → Buy Tickets
Big Red Barn & The Continental Oct 25–31 $10 ($12.61 with fees and taxes) roundtoptexasantiques.com → Buy Tickets

Marburger Farm opens Tuesday, Oct 27 and runs through Saturday, Oct 31. Opening day has its own early-entry crowd, including a Tuesday morning tailgate for early-admission ticket holders. If you're deciding whether paying extra for early entry is worth it, read our honest take on VIP tickets at Round Top.

Big Red Barn starts with Designer Day on Sunday, Oct 25, a separate ticketed event ($195 for 12–5 PM, doors at 11, open bar; the $150 early-bird price ended Sept 30). The general public show then runs Monday, Oct 26 through Saturday, Oct 31:

  • Oct 26 (opening day): 9 AM–6 PM
  • Oct 27–30: 9 AM–5 PM
  • Oct 31 (last day): 9 AM–4 PM

What's free

Everywhere else in our directory lists free admission, including Blue Hills, Market Hill, The Compound, The Arbors, Bar W Field, Excess 2 and Y Station. Parking at most of them is free too.

Some Warrenton fields charge for parking instead. For example, Little House on the Hill charges $5 to park in the middle of Warrenton, and you can then walk to almost all of the surrounding show grounds. Bring a few small bills, because not every field takes cards. Our parking guide covers where to park, and the Field Map lets you save your spot.

Ticketed events during the show

Admission is one thing; some of the best nights of the week sell their own tickets. These are the ticketed ones on our fall calendar (see everything on the day-by-day events page):

  • Oct 16: Double D Ranch Bingo at The Halles (reported sold out)
  • Oct 22: Freedom Fashion Show at The Arbors; Dirty Bohemian Vintage Renegade Fashion Show at Zapp Hall; Luna Marketing Experience at Blue Hills
  • Oct 23: Din & Juice dinner at The Halles (tickets at thehalles.com); Pixie & the Moon fashion show at Cisco Village
  • Oct 24: Practical Magic Junk-O-Rama Prom at Junk Gypsy (tickets required, gates open 6 PM)
  • Oct 25: Supper at Sunset with M3 Cellars at The Arbors
  • Oct 26: PaperCity Designer Dinner at The Halles (tickets at thehalles.com); Fried Chicken Formal at Zapp Hall (21+)
  • Oct 27: Cowboy Couture fashion show on Henkel Square
  • Oct 28: Ginger Ray Walker butterfly workshop at Brumbaugh's Furniture

Plenty of the week is free, too. Live music at Zapp Hall is often a free dancehall show, and the Boots and Bourbon Bash on Henkel Square (Oct 17) and the Market Hill 10th Birthday Vendor Crawl (Oct 22) don't charge.
