SUMMARY:DeKalb Back Alley Market
DESCRIPTION:The DeKalb Back Alley Market (BAM) takes over downtown DeKalb with a curated mix of vintage\, handmade\, and just plain cool. You’ll find 150+ vendors spread through streets and alleyways—everything from vintage clothing and home décor to pottery\, candles\, apothecary goods\, and specialty foods. \n\n\n\nIt’s not a craft fair and it’s not a flea market. BAM is built to feel a little different—more curated\, more unexpected\, and fun to wander. Add in live music\, local food\, and a crowd that shows up ready to explore\, and it turns into more than just shopping. \n\n\n\nCome dig around\, find something you didn’t know you needed\, and spend a few hours having fun in our alley! \n\n\n\nLocation: DeKalb Back Alley Market\, Palmer Ct.\, 2nd and 3rd St. DeKalb\, ILAdmission is free. Bring your family and well-behaved petsDon’t miss out on this unique shopping experience in Downtown DeKalb!
