This gigantic flea has 10 huge buildings connected by a central walkway. You may want to borrow a truck (if you don't have your own) just to get all of your treasures back home! The market has 130,000 square feet of indoor space filled to the brim with everything under the sun, new and used. Find it at 905 Webb Rd., Salisbury, NC 28146. It's open year-round on Saturday and Sunday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Both indoor and outdoor vendors meet each weekend at the largest flea market in the Carolinas. From antiques to new items, a restaurant, hair salon, and more, it's also probably one of the most unique fleas you'll ever find. It's located at 5360 Hendersonville Rd., Fletcher, NC 28732. The hours are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
More than 600 vendors converge on the State Fair Grounds in Raleigh each weekend (except in October when the state fair takes over) with treasures galore! Booths and bargains await both out in the open and under cover. Bundle up and go find that perfect thing you never knew you needed! The Raleigh Flea Market is located at 1025 Blue Ridge Rd., Raleigh, NC 27607. It's open every Saturday and Sunday (except in October) from 9:00 a.m to 6:00 p.m., rain or shine.
More than 100,000 square feet of indoor space alone makes this year-round market an ideal spot for shopping in the colder months! But don't be surprised to find vendors outside all year long, too!

More than 200 vendors show up each week for this open air, covered flea in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
