Anyone in Utah who enjoys browsing through a flea market full of nostalgic treasures has probably heard of the Urban Flea Market. Held one Sunday a month in Salt Lake City, it is one of the most popular and well-attended flea market in the Beehive State. A well-organised and established market is a rare thing in Utah, which tends to be an area for impromptu yard sales, so this is definitely an event that any collector or thrift enthusiast will want to save the date for.
The Urban Flea Market really stands out from the other well-known flea markets in Utah. These other markets tend to be a little overcrowded with vendors offering cheap and new items, and as a result, each stall tends to be a bit of a copy of the other. The Urban Flea is no different. Curiosities and oddities crowd the stalls, and it is hard to find the same item in more than one place! As a result, visitors usually end up with a long list of items they want to take home, and collectors can also fill their bags.
Rather than trying to summarise what you can find at the Urban Flea Market, it might be easier to just say that you can find a little bit of everything. If it is old and holds a special place in the memories of visitors, it is likely to be for sale somewhere here. It is a large flea market and although it is open all day, keen shoppers will find that it can take the best part of the day to fully explore it. So get there early and make the most of it.
With so much to look at, so many toys and so many friendly people to chat to, the Urban Flea Market is the perfect way to spend a Sunday with the family.
