    It is next weekend and it is located on 43 Highway South of I 44 about a mile on the east side of 43. If I have a flyer in the shop, I will post more information. What do you need to know?

    Is this the same swap meet that they used to have at the old 66 raceway in Joplin?

    It's decent. I don't think I'd personally drive from St Luis though. If you've got nothing better to do and reaaly enjoy driving the 44 hwy then maybe. I'll be there Friday am

    If it were me, I'd wait and come down to Springfield in August for the Grandaddy of swap meets at the Fairgrounds.

    just got an email from the promoter chris:

    We had to move to unforeseen cir***stances, as one of the owners of the property we had last year does not want to have anything there anymore, this is why you should always have a contract. The new place is just down the interstate, take I-44 to exit number 1 and head North one and a half miles and the swap meet will be on the right hand side of the road, there will be plenty of signs. It is just North of Down Stream Casino. There is a map on our website. www.66swapmeet.com

    Sorry for ANY inconvenience this may cause anybody.

    The 14th Annual Meet 2014 HAS BEEN CANCELED

    Due to the city of Joplin lack of a manager, they have made it hard for us to have a swap meet this year! They want each and every vendor to go to the city offices to buy a license to be able to sell! They didn't give us enough time to get with the city council to have that changed, we should have it taken care of by next year!

    For those you have already paid we will either refund your payment, or hold on to it until next year, it is up to you. Contact us to let us know. We will be sending out mailers to all we have on our mailing list.
