The Mystics and Marvels Oddities Flea returns to the Franklin County Fairgrounds in Hilliard on Saturday, Oct. 17, and Sunday, Oct. 18, with fortune tellers, dancers and live music.

The two-day expo sets up in the Burke Building at 4100 Columbia St. Admission is $6 at the door for all ages, with free parking. Children in strollers get in free.

The event is produced by the same promoters behind the Angels & Aliens and Gift of Light expos, according to the event's website. Organizers describe the setup as "mystical and vintage style scenery" where attendees walk through streets designed to feel like "another world."

The advertised attractions includes fortune tellers, live music throughout the day, dancers and demonstrations the organizers describe as "from days of old." Food is also listed among the offerings.

The Franklin County Fairgrounds promoted the event on Instagram, calling it a return engagement. The fairgrounds post lists hours as 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., while the event's own website and a listing in Columbus Navigator both show 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Attendees may want to check the event website for the latest schedule.

No advance tickets are needed. All tickets are sold at the door with no upcharge.

The expo is one of several Halloween-season events across the Hilliard area. Residents can visit mysticsandmarvels.com for updates and vendor details.
