The Original TIKI Market Place "End of Summer Extravaganza" September 23, 2023

It was great hanging out and talking with you Bosko Dude.

Grog, it was nice to see you sunday and that you took the time to come down to visit old friends at The International Tiki market place. I also really like the proof mug from Primitive that I got from you, You put a lot work and time into your mugs. Looking forward to you vending at the market place. Again thanks for the great mug.

A little clarification here for people who might be mislead by this post. HB got this from Rory off of ebay, not from GROG at this last international marketplace. This was the artist proof that lead to the run of 100 for Goin' Primitive. There are no more available in these colors.

GROG glad you like GROG' mugs, HB. Don't know that GROG will have time to do any mugs for vending at Don's before GROG go back to work in May. GROG have plenty of old mugs, bowls, and salt and pepper shakers that GROG have to fix that GROG still owe people patiently waiting for them before GROG can get onto some more new stuff.And once GROG back to work in animation, there not really time for doing any ceramics.

The International Tiki Market Place at Don the Beachcomber created by Soccer Tiki like being back in Old Hawaii with real Hawaiian Music, food , great drinks, Tiki Vendors. Towards the end of the Market place Art of DTB was buying and original art work from Doug Horn, A Puffer Fish for the Restaurant, as I walked by I got a framing job. Here is a picture of the puffer fish framed. If you need a unique picture framed for an up coming events, please pm HB TIKI at tiki central.

Listening to vendors and people who attended The International Tiki Market was that they had fun, close to home and a nice way to spend time with the family. Here is the picture I did for DTB and other frames I have done for my self

Will the Marketplace be happenin' in May?

Thanks to Karen, Chris, and Art for another great Sunday (April 1st) at Don The Beachcomber's International Tiki Market Place.
The whole family had fun enjoying the food and drink. We also got good deals on some tiki purchases. On a side note I believe the award for farthest distance traveled to the show by tiki affectionados goes to the delegates from Holland !

Contact (PM) SoccerTiki for info...

Thanks ATM. Yes, if you are interested in vending at one of our International Tiki Market Place events, please PM me and I'll add your name and email to our wait-list. With the popularity of this event raising beyond our expectations, we have unfortunately had to start a waiting list for those vendors who wish to take part. In the future we will expand in hopes of handling all the vendors that want to participate. The key is to not make a "swap meet" out of it and keep the "feel" of the International Market Place intact.

Stay tuned for upcoming announcements!

Here we go! The second BIG announcement!!!

That's right! Bob Van Oosting and Leroy Schmaltz will be in attendance along with Tiki Diablo to sign their new Tiki Mug!!!

***Because of this and Tiki Farm/The Pizz mug release there will be NO EARLY ADMISSION TO THIS EVENT! DOORS OPEN AT 11AM!!!

[ Edited by: SoccerTiki 2012-04-26 08:29 ]

Those are some sweet looking mugs that are being released. It looks like the next marketplace is going to put a big dent in some of our wallets.

Now DATS cool! Bob and Leroy at a Tiki event - that's a first!
