Attention vinyl hunters and music enthusiasts: if you love vintage aesthetics and are fascinated by places with an incredible history, you can combine both on November 15, as a new edition of a vinyl and music fair—featuring all formats—is coming up. This time, the event is just a few minutes from the Obelisk. The venue? A grand mansion dating back to 1910.
The “Revolviendo Bateas” vinyl fair is stepping off its usual circuit this weekend to host a special edition on November 15 at a location that’s a true hidden gem in the southern suburbs: a century-old mansion that seems frozen in time.
If you love the idea of rummaging through crates to find your next record in the gardens of a century-old house, we’ll tell you more about the Quinta de los Leones, the venue for this vinyl fair on November 15.
La Quinta de Don Riziero Preti, also known as “Villa San Pablo” or “Quinta de los Leones,” is located at 440 9 de Julio Avenue in Lomas de Zamora—and it’s not just any house: it was built in the early 20th century by Riziero Preti, an Italian immigrant bricklayer who, after purchasing the land, became the founder of the entire town of Turdera.
This property, which was also declared a Site of Historical Interest by the Province of Buenos Aires, retains all the stately elegance of 1910. As you stroll through its halls and gardens browsing vinyl records, you’ll automatically feel transported to another era.
A century-old house that houses thousands of vinyl records and collectibles
Throughout the fair, the mansion opens its doors to become a paradise for music lovers and collectors. What will you find there?
- Music in all formats: thousands of vinyl records and CDs for you to rummage through the bins until you find that rare edition you’ve been searching for.
- Collectibles: In addition to music, the fair features booths with antiques, vintage curiosities, and retro items.
