If you love the thrill of digging through tables stacked with old vinyl records, postcards, and antique tools, Massachusetts is about to become your happy place.
Across the state, you will find everything from huge outdoor markets to indoor warehouses packed with booths, plus seasonal pop-ups that are worth the trip.
Some only happen a few weekends a year and draw tens of thousands of shoppers, while others open every Sunday like clockwork, rain or shine, all year long.
Grab some cash, bring a reusable tote, and get ready to hunt for one-of-a-kind finds, because these 8 Massachusetts flea markets are where the real treasure stories begin.
1. Brimfield Antique Flea Market
Brimfield Antique Flea Market takes over Route 20 in the town of Brimfield, turning open fields into the largest outdoor antique show in the U.S.
With more than 6,000 dealers, the market spans 20+ different show fields, including May’s Antique Market and Hertan’s Antique Shows.
You’ll find everything from furniture and home decor to jewelry, artwork, collectibles, plants, and plenty of unexpected antiques.
To catch it in action, the market happens three times a year in May, July, and September, with most shows running Tuesday through Sunday.
Crowds can draw over 50,000 shoppers during a single show week, with early-rising treasure hunters ready to score unique finds you won’t see at your local mall.
2. Raynham Flea Market
If Brimfield is a seasonal treasure hunt, Raynham Flea Market is your year-round go-to spot at 480 South Street West in Raynham, set inside a massive indoor space.
Open Sundays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. all year, this market hosts dozens of vendors selling comic books, video games, jewelry, and even discounted clothing.
That variety is exactly why you’ll spot regulars heading straight for their favorite booths, whether that’s the tables stacked with Funko Pops or Pokémon cards.
Admission is just $1.50 per person and kids 12 and under get in free, making it a budget-friendly place to pick up a small find without breaking the bank.
3. Grafton Flea Market
Up next is Grafton Flea Market, which offers an open-air setup at 296 Upton Street in Grafton, where rows of tents and tables stretch across the grounds.
This Sunday market typically runs from April through December from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m., and shoppers who arrive right at opening often score the best deals.
Vendors here are known for antiques and vintage items, so you can dig through boxes of vinyl records, flip through comic books, or pick up old hand tools.
Parking is free, the atmosphere feels relaxed, and with the market only running through December, you’ll be itching to go back as soon as spring comes around.
4. The Somerville Flea
The Somerville Flea in Somerville is a great place to keep hunting for unique finds with two separate flea markets depending on the time of year.
Addresses:
- Outdoor market: 56 Holland St., Somerville (Davis Square location)
- Indoor market: Arts at the Armory, 191 Highland Ave., Somerville
You have an outdoor flea market at Davis Square on Sundays from August through October, and then you also have the indoor holiday market on 2 dates in December.
The indoor holiday market pops up only on December 7 and 21 and features about 40 curated vendors selling handmade jewelry, art, and vintage clothing you’ll want to try on right away.
The outdoor market also has enough to keep you busy for a whole afternoon, with vintage finds, goods from local artisans, farm-fresh produce, and even live music.
Both flea markets are free to enter, which makes them an easy stop for a quick browse or a full afternoon of shopping.
5. Douglas Flea Market
If Somerville feels lively and urban, Douglas Flea Market delivers a more rustic experience inside a beautiful barn at 436 Northeast Main Street in Douglas.
This market runs year-round on Saturdays and Sundays from 9 a.m to 4 p.m.
Tables here are filled with antique dolls, trays of necklaces and rings, wooden furniture pieces, and shelves stacked with home goods and collectibles.
And since there’s no rush and parking is free, you can wander at your own pace until something catches your eye.
6. Wellfleet Flea Market
After the country charm of Douglas, the Wellfleet Flea Market adds a coastal twist at the Wellfleet drive-in theater parking lot at 51 Route 6 in Wellfleet.
It is considered the largest flea market on Cape Cod and operates from early March through the fall, then shuts down for the winter months.
Here you can explore a lively mix of vendors offering antiques, vintage clothing, jewelry, handcrafted art, home décor, and other one-of-a-kind treasures.
Admission is typically $1 to $3 per car, depending on the number of vendors that are present.
7. Yankee Flea Market
Then there’s Yankee Flea Market in Palmer, which runs year-round inside a massive 17,500-square-foot building at 1311 Park Street.
Open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., this indoor market offers more than 200 vendor booths, so there’s always something new to discover.
You are not digging through muddy fields here, since everything is arranged on booths and shelves, making it easy to browse and compare prices on collectibles.
Best of all, there is no admission fee, and because it never shuts down for winter, you can pop in on a cold January afternoon for some old-school treasure hunting.
8. Todd Farm Flea Market
Last but not least is the Todd Farm Flea Market in Rowley, set at 275 Main Street on a wide grassy field.
This longtime favorite takes place every Sunday from April through November, with more than 200 vendors selling furniture, fishing gear, and even rustic signs.
Parking is $5, though it’s free after 11:00 a.m., and since the market is seasonal, it’s a great excuse to carve out a Sunday before winter rolls in.
And if you miss the flea market dates, check out The House and The Barn (also at Todd Farm), which stay open year-round for that shopping fix.
