    You could try emailing or calling the actual organization putting it on. I'm sure they will know - phone and email are in the notice in the first post.

    Congrats on getting your upgrade!!

    In general though hamfests start about 9 AM and go until the interest dies out.... usually not much later than 2 or 3 in the afternoon. But it's not uncommon to find cool stuff left behind on tables or in trash bins at the very end - sellers not wanting to drag stuff home.
