Grafflmarkt's autumn installment kicks off
Celebrating 50 Years of the Flea Market: A Weekend of Rummaging and Haggling in the Old Town District
This weekend, the heart of the old town district comes alive with the 50th anniversary of a beloved tradition – the Flea Market. The festivities kick off today at 4 PM and continue tomorrow from 8 AM to 4 PM, offering visitors a chance to rummage through a treasure trove of unique finds and haggle for bargains.
The Flea Market, a much-anticipated annual event, takes place on King Street and Lion Square, and this year, it returns to its roots in The Further Old Town. For those with little ones, there's a Children's Flea Market situated around St. Michael's Church, where young explorers can join in the fun.
As you wander through the market, be sure to stop by the Free Bank to catch a glimpse of the photo exhibition showcasing one-of-a-kind Flea Market finds from past years. It's a fascinating peek into the market's rich history and the unique items that have caught the eyes of collectors over the decades.
The organiser of this year's anniversary flea market is typically the local community association or the city’s cultural office, but the exact name is not provided in the available information. Regardless of the organiser, the Flea Market has always been a community event, bringing together locals and visitors alike in a celebration of second-hand treasures.
As the sun sets on the first day of the Flea Market, the celebrations don't end there. Tomorrow, the market continues, offering another full day of rummaging and haggling. And with the Children's Flea Market also taking place tomorrow, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
So, whether you're a seasoned Flea Market veteran or a first-time visitor, come down to King Street and Lion Square this weekend and join in the festivities. You never know what hidden gems you might find!
