REOPENING OF THE FLEA MARKET
A classic fair of Buenos Aires City gets its splendor back: the Old Flea Market reopens. After 5 years of a postponed renewal of the place, the greatest antiques and cult objects fair of our city will reopen in a few weeks. The Market is back in the same warehouse where it worked since 1988 until 2006, on Dorrego Avenue, in the limit of Palermo and Colegiales neighborhoods.
The 143 entitled market vendors (who are nowadays working in a warehouse next door) will receive the people with a wide variety of collectable objects, unique and original pieces which attract the vintage fashion lovers and those who love these truly priceless objects. The new spot has better safety measures (a fire preventive system, evacuation drafts, among others).
In the corner of Dorrego Avenue and Conde Street, you will get antiques, used modern objects, furniture and special pieces of different decades of the XX Century, clothing, ornamental objects, books, keys, small presents and memories from the past that might even move the nostalgic. It’s not just a walk; the Old Flea Market is more like a trip to the recent (and not so recent) past of our lives.
A great tour for you to find original presents to carry back home and a fabulous place to take some of the best pictures you can imagine. Hostel Colonial encourages you to visit this fair which will be available from mid-June.
