About

The Berkeley Flea Market is a cultural institution that has been around for nearly half a decade. Every weekend, the flea market provides space for local and international artisans to share and sell their crafts. Beyond being a center of trade, the flea market is also a venue for cultural community activities such as open mics, fashion shows, and drum circles. If you want a real taste of California culture, this easily accessible weekend event is located right by the Ashby Bart in Berkeley.
