When do the the names usually come out? Has anybody seen any individual people confirm on any social media? I know SJB said that she wasn't sure yet.
I never did the flea market before, would that be a good way to stock up on Hedwig merch?

Definitely! You may have to dig for it more this year since the show will be closed and they won't have a show table, but you will most definitely find some!
This'll be my first attendance too! I am totally pumped. Especially if I can get a souvenir from The Visit...I have my reasons...muahahaha.
But, I will also be looking forward to Fun Home, An American in Paris, and Dames at Sea.
The website says names will be listed in September. So the first batch of names should be out around late next week or so.

Thank you!
I'm excited for the market this year! Last year (my first time) I was only able to pop by for about a half hour, and I'm excited to spend more time this year, and possibly visit the autograph table.
HEDWIG may still have a table. Closed shows have had tables before. Even if not, other tables will have HEDWIG posters, makeup, CDs, playbills, etc.
As always, I'd give anything for Angela Lansbury to do the table.

Same here! Tyne Daly's was such treat last year and I'd love for Angela to do the same!
I hope the lineup is a little more interesting than last year. Not that I do not appreciate the people who volunteer their time to do this. But, last year didn't have sessions that were very impressive, to me.
3rd year going to the flea market and I always find something neat in the mix. I save up during the summer and look forward to splurging on it every year.
I have never been to the Flea Market and have been looking forward to it for months now. I planned to make a day of it but a party for a friend has been scheduled and I have to go. So, I'm going to be able to attend the market in the morning - planning to be there by opening at 10 and have to leave by 11.
I know I'll miss autograph tables and auction stuff. But will the show tables all be up and running then? Anyone have thoughts on me buzzing through this quickly?

All the tables should be open by 10, yes. The last 2 years have been extremely crowded, therefore "buzzing through" might not be easy.
I'm hoping for Lin-Manuel since Javier Muñoz does the Sunday performances.

Unfortunately, Lin-Manuel Miranda said he can't make it to the flea market this year on Twitter.

Just got an e-mail regarding the Silent Auction & the Grand Auction. Both lists will be posted online on Friday, September 11, 2015. I would imagine the list of Celebrity Table guests would begin shortly after that, if not at the same time. The Celebrity Table list goes through many revisions before the actual event, so just be aware. Someone who is initially available may not be able to attend as the date gets closer. It's always best if you have a few people that you'd like to see instead of just hoping one person will be there.
My depression at not being able to go this year is overwhelming
The Celebrity Photo Booth/Autograph Table are up!
ETA: Sorry, I didn't realize that was the archived one from 2014. Sorry if I got anyone's hopes up!

That's last year's.
Is anyone else bothered that Darren Chriss' concert thing is the same day as the flea market?
Yes. Discussed here: https://forum.broadwayworld.com/readmessage.php?thread=1086069#4708484

The always popular Autograph Table and Photo Booth will welcome more than 60 actors from Broadway’s best shows. The complete list of participants will be announced Tuesday, September 15?

I wonder how high the "go backstage" items will go? Is there a list of completed auctions from last year to get a general idea? Really wish Hamilton was offering a backstage offer.

Can anyone explain how the tables are organized? Does each show have a table or each theater? Are there tables from other organizations such as Lincoln Center, The Public Theater, Roundabout etc?
