Roots & Roost, Co

Every year, the quaint town of Round Top, Texas (population around 90) and its neighboring towns of Carmine, LaGrange, and Warrenton, warmly welcome over a hundred thousand visitors (predominantly women) for an unparalleled antique hunting experience. This event is the Round Top Antique Show, an 11-mile stretch of dealers showcasing their treasures in antique barns, tents, storefronts, and markets. Dealers come from across the country, many having participated for years. These 10-day extravaganzas occur twice a year—in the fall and spring—with a shorter 4-day winter show. The entire region, including towns between Round Top and Houston or Austin (the nearest major cities to fly into), buzzes with excitement during these weeks as they highlight their own unique spots for antique hunting.
