West Palm Beach Antique and Flea Market | Florida

Wandering through the West Palm Beach Antique and Flea Market on Clematis Street felt like stepping into a living treasure trove. When I visited, I found myself strolling past vintage jewelry, mid-century furniture, and repurposed décor laid out against the backdrop of historic downtown. The market bubbles with energy, local history, and that unbeatable thrill of discovery just what a weekend market should feel like.

Market Details

I parked in a nearby garage and walked under the live oaks to Clematis Street. There’s no entry fee, so you can ease into exploring without fuss. If you arrived by bike, there’s a valet at the Mandel Public Library Plaza that offered free, secure parking on my visit. The mix of street parking and garages made organizing my route effortless.

Vendor Information

When I learned that vendor applications for the season are open this fall season, I saw how the market supports local dealers and artisans. Past seasons have featured well over 100 vendors spread across the 300 and 400 blocks—as well as on the library plaza—bringing in antique furniture, vintage clothing, art, collectibles, and upcycled treasures.

Tips for First Timers

If it’s your first visit, here’s what I discovered:

• Arrive early to get ahead of the crowds and spot the best vintage finds.

• Bring cash for easier bartering though some vendors accept cards, many preferred cash.

• Wear comfortable shoes; the market stretches through several blocks and past café-lined sidewalks.

• If you’re shopping for big furniture or fragile antiques, think transport either bring a cart or check delivery options with vendors.
