Brooklyn Flea
————-<\/p>\n
It’s the variety, the chance of stumbling across a hidden gem amid 100 stalls of furniture, vintage clothing, jewellery, crafts and assorted objects that have made this one of the most popular flea markets around. From April and October , it runs on Saturdays at Williamsburg at Kent Ave at N 6th Street, and at DUMBO (Manhattan Bridge Archway – 80 Pearl St) on Sundays. During winter it shares space with acclaimed foodie spin-off Smorgasburg, an open-air food market delivering fashionable fusion cooking, on the eighth floor of 25 Kent Avenue in Williamsburg. 10am-6pm, Saturday and Sunday.<\/p>\n
LIC Flea & Food
—————-<\/p>\n
A waterfront market overlooking the midtown Manhattan skyline, LIC Flea & Food is a little smaller than some markets, but there’s still a good selection of cool vintage clothing, funky jewellery and handcrafted treasures. Hunt out on-trend vintage jeans and t-shirts, grab a slice of wood-fired pizza and settle down in the outdoor beer garden to enjoy the view over a craft beer. It’s at 5-25 46th Avenue, Long Island City. Open 10am-6pm, Saturday and Sunday, June-October.<\/p>\n
Grand Central Market
——————–<\/p>\n
Inside the iconic Grand Central Terminal building, this market might not be the cheapest, but it does deliver a great selection of top-end ready meals, fruit, vegetables, sushi and other fish, cheeses and cakes. Ideal if you’re on the go. It’s at 89E 42nd Street. Open 7am-9pm Monday-Friday; 10am-7pm Saturday; 11am-6pm Sunday; closed public holidays.<\/p>\n
Queens International Night Market
———————————<\/p>\n
Friendly, affordable and very cosmopolitan, Queens International Night Market has 80 or so stalls selling food, clothes and curios reflecting the mix of cultures in the borough. Be adventurous: try the Trinidadian fried-shark sandwiches, Barbadian fishballs and Chinese sugar painting. There are also art stalls, live music and DJs and, best of all, a price cap.<\/p>\n
Open for business on Saturday nights April-October, it’s right behind the New York Hall of Science. Open 5pm-midnight Saturdays.<\/p>\n

Grand Bazaar NYC
—————-<\/p>\n
A feature of New York City life for more than 30 years, this market overflows with good vibes. It has a fantastic range of antiques and vintage pieces offered by stallholders who clearly love what they do. Seek out crafts, jewellery and photography from up-and-coming artists. Stalls are undercover and outdoors – up to 200 during peak season – and the profits go to local schools. Open on Sundays all year round, 10am-5.30pm, 100 W 77th Street, Manhattan.<\/p>\n
Chelsea Flea Market
——————-<\/p>\n
Chelsea Flea is something of a smorgasbord outdoor market; you’re as likely to find second-hand DVDs as Art Deco antiques. It’s a real New York experience that’s loved by the locals – and they love a good market. Browse for vinyl, comics, vintage cameras and furniture from up to 100 stalls. Open 6.30am-7pm Saturday and Sunday ($1 admission fee after 9am, $5 before). It’s at 29 West 25th Street (between Broadway and Sixth Avenue).<\/p>\n
