Launched in June 2013, the unique urban marketplace that is the Providence Flea Outdoor Market was inspired by the popular, fun and famous Brooklyn Flea and DUMBO Flea in New York. The Providence Flea Outdoor Market makes the most of the beautiful autumn and summer weather with vendors in fantastic outdoor spaces, and moves indoors for the winter and spring. Hundreds of vendors have taken advantage of the popularity of this flea market and it has become a thriving community event in Rhode Island.
The Providence Flea Outdoor Market is much more than your typical flea market. It is not just a collection of people who have cleared out their homes and are hawking their wares for a few extra bucks. The vendors are entrepreneurs who have embraced vintage as a lifestyle and are carefully hand-picked by the organisers. The Providence Flea Outdoor Market also celebrates local handicrafts, with many vendors having small local shops. All the goods for sale are unique or bespoke, lovingly crafted or curated and impossible to resist for the avid flea market shopper. This flea market has become the perfect launch pad for keen vendors to build their reputation and establish themselves in the marketplace and is proud to do so.
In addition to all the treats and entertainment, the Providence Flea Outdoor Market offers a wide range of goods for sale. Home decor, indoor and outdoor furniture, vintage and handmade jewellery, clothing, stained glass, woodwork, pillows, coolers, toys and much more. If you are looking for that special something that you cannot find anywhere else, this is the place to shop.
The Providence Flea Outdoor Market also welcomes community-based non-profit organisations. In addition to the amazing stalls and wonderful causes, the Providence Flea also invites local musicians to light up the venue, as well as food trucks and carts selling delicious, homemade and local food to keep shoppers energised throughout the day. The whole atmosphere that surrounds this flea is one of celebration, and shoppers are sure to make this a regular destination after their first experience.
