Whether attendees scoured the Flea Market for a unique item, looked to find equipment to fulfill their “dream” of building a tower or a radio, saw old friends or had the occasion to make new ones, people were “imagining the possibilities.” Others still have the “dream” to attend a Dayton Hamvention. We invite you and hope you can realize your “dream” to attend Dayton Hamvention®

Welcome to the 2027 Dayton Hamvention® Flea Market webpage. As we move towards
another great year at the Greene County Fair and Exposition Center, we’re continuing to put
forth an effort to make improvements that will help everyone enjoy their visit. Our goal is to
move forward and continue to provide visitors and vendors alike with whatever is within our
means, to make 2027 another memorable year.
As you plan for your visit, please keep in mind that the Flea Market committee fields and
responds to many e-mails and phone calls. Each one is important and we make every effort to
respond in an expedient time. As we work through all the requests, we appreciate your
patience, while we attempt to support your needs with your reservation process.
Throughout the year, we receive comments that are considered and help us make decisions to
better our service for you. Please take a few minutes to read through the 2027 Flea Market
Rules and Information, as there may be some changes that might affect your planning, making
your reservation and attending this year’s event.
NEW – IMPORTANT
Following the 2026 Hamvention, we began working with a new booking program, which should
help make our reservation process better, however, we are still working on launching it. As
such, the opening of our online reservation portal will be delayed until December. Since this
program is new to us, as well as to you, we appreciate your patience during this inaugural year.
Should you experience any problems while attempting to place a reservation, please reach out
to us and we’ll work with you to resolve them.
The Flea Market e-mail address is: fleamarket@Hamvention.org , which can be used as your
point of contact, for assistance. Each e-mail will be responded to in the order that they’re
received, so responses may not be immediate, but you’re not being ignored. In addition, the
Flea Market cell phone is: 937-603-8411. This can be used to contact the Flea Market Chairman
by either a phone call or sending a text message. Please save this number as “Flea Market Cell”.
Doing so will allow you to identify us, if we need to contact you.
PLEASE NOTE: Sending e-mails, regarding Flea Market concerns, to Hamvention® personnel or
committees, other than the Flea Market will only delay a response from the Flea Market
committee. E-mails sent to any personal addresses will be forwarded to the Flea Market’s
email, before being read. When sending e-mails, please do not send more than one, unless the newer e-mail contains important information not contained in a previous one. Multiple e-mails may create unnecessary delays in processing a reservation or responding to a request. Calls made to personal home telephones are a disturbance to our families, so please respect this.
As always, we remain eager to assist you and help make this another great year for the greatest
amateur radio attraction in the world, the Dayton Hamvention® and as we continue to improve,
we continue to be grateful for your patience and continued support of this amazing event.
From all of us at the Dayton Amateur Radio Association and especially the Flea Market
Committee, we thank you for your continued support of the Dayton Hamvention®.
73,
Dave Tritch
