People browse vinyl records and vintage goods during a previous Record Riot event in Philadelphia.

A stretch of South Street will turn into an open-air record market on Saturday, May 2, as the “Record Riot” returns for a day centered around vinyl collecting and music culture.

The event runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. between 5th and 6th streets. Admission is free.

More than 60 vendor tables are expected, with dealers bringing thousands of LPs and CDs spanning a wide range of genres. The selection is geared toward both serious collectors and casual browsers, with a mix of common releases and harder-to-find records.

Beyond vinyl, the market will include vintage clothing, jewelry, T-shirts and other items, giving it more of a street festival feel than a traditional record show. Music is expected throughout the day, and nearby South Street businesses will be open for food and drinks.

The event is open to all ages and accessible to the public.
