Flea markets are the ultimate treasure hunt. With an ever-changing inventory of vintage apparel, housewares, antique furniture, and unique decor, you really never know what you’ll find when you visit your favorite flea market. In Portland, there’s an amazing open-air market that really takes things to the next level, turning your classic “flea market” experience into an event with open-air stalls that feel more like curated boutiques than resale shops! With 80+ vendors, Portland Flea is one of the largest flea markets in Oregon, and it’s a place you’ll want to visit again and again.
Portland Flea describes itself as a “monthly gathering place for the creators, curators, and collectors” – and that’s exactly what it is.
