When it comes to Indy’s shopping scene, we love a good treasure hunt — and a good bargain. Our city is home to several fabulous flea markets, vibrant vintage shops, and resale gems. So get in, we’re going shopping.
Flea markets

This local institution has four locations across central Indiana, each hosting 200+ vendors. Our favorite, Emporium 40, is open seven days a week for all your thrifting needs.

Trader Buck’s Flea Market, Speedway
Eclectic doesn’t even begin to cover this flea market’s offerings — head their way to see for yourself. Bonus: The group also operates the Peddler’s Mall on the east side, if that’s closer to home.
Strawtown Flea Market, Strawtown
Any antique lover should make the pilgrimage up to Strawtown to check out this historic market. Open at daylight every Thursday, it features both outdoor and indoor sellers + public auctions in the evening.
