The SWFL Retro Show is happening on Sunday, February 15, 2026 at the Hilton DoubleTree Hotel in Fort Myers, and if any of that sounds familiar, you’re going to love this. More than fifty vendors are bringing vintage video games, classic toys, comic books, vinyl records, and all the stuff you used to beg your parents for.
