Great place to find nicknacks/decorations for an apartment , vintage jewelry & clothing . Vendors willing to bargain on price. Be sure to have cash to pay admission. Perfect place to spend a Sunday!

Joshua Van Dyk

Very cool place. We have been there twice and always found something cool at a good price. It is a very solid mix of upcycled furniture , clothing and other cool finds. Definitely worth going to.

Veronica Chavira

This unique antique market takes place at Fairfax high school every Sunday and offers antiques and one-of-a-kind clothes . There is a small $5 fee and get there early, 9am! Local bands play here too.

Lauren Green

Hipsters , creatives, and artists alike gather every weekend to find vintage treasures from unique art pieces and furniture to jewelry , candles, books and more! Go early as parking can fill up quickly.

Connie Chiu

Huge flea market with a food area. Love the variety of knick knacks. $3 entrance fee for a good cause at least. (Not sure if this is the same as fairfax flea market )

Veanney Hurtado

The Sunday Flea Market is like the best garage sale you will ever go to. You can find vintage pieces such as art accessories and clothing for dirt cheap .

Thomas Colton

It may seem impossible, but you can probably find decent street parking if you try hard enough. There's a lot of junk, but still some decent finds scattered around. Bring your friends from out of town

Cupcakes and Cashmere

My go-to spot for antique house goods (look for trays, mirrors, and vases), vintage clothes , and costume jewelry . Bring cash, comfortable shoes , and don't forget to bargain!

Melrose Trading Post

A good spot to while away a lazy Sunday afternoon. People watching is almost as good as looking for a bargain

$3.00 entry - you can find some cute items here if you search hard enough!

Come early to beat the crowd but come late to people watch . If you're looking for denim cutoff shorts , you will find more than enough here.

CA (Shop) This flea market is held every Sunday from 9a-5p in the parking lot of the Fairfax High School - go early to find the best treasures. You won't leave empty handed.

Open 9am-5pm, but get there early, too hot in the afternoon!

Amy MacDonald

Great flea market . Don't miss it if you're in the area.

JordanPaige

Most of the the vendors overcharge for cheap reprints. The same goes for "vintage" furniture ; they never know the type of wood & it's faux antiquing

Amit

Great market with fantastic tid-bits for the finding. The small $2 entrance fee goes straight to charity . Read more

Allison Vallant

Print out the coupon on the website for $1 off admission! They won't honor it on your smartphone (which is lame, save a tree !)

If anyone comes across Yameen from @EarthMadeDesigns. DO NOT USE HIM!!! I send him a deposit out of good faith and now he won't return my money. He says he has $40.00 to his name.DO NOT USE THIS GUY!

Anna Reid

Lots of stuff. You can find everything here.

@irabrianmiller

Extra parking in the back across from Clinton Street. Use it since parking could be gnarly around there.
