The 8 Best Flea Markets in Paris (2026)

Updated November 2026 · 8 picks

The best flea markets in Paris in 2026 are the Puces de Saint-Ouen, home to Paul Bert Serpette, Biron, Vernaison and Dauphine, plus the city-run Porte de Vanves (Saturday and Sunday) and Porte de Montreuil (Saturday to Monday). Saint-Ouen is open Friday to Monday, with Friday for trade.

There are two kinds of flea market here. The Puces de Paris Saint-Ouen, just over the northern city limit, is a cluster of covered antique markets with dealers' stalls, open Friday (trade), Saturday, Sunday and Monday. The Porte de Vanves and Porte de Montreuil are street markets on the city edge, run on weekends and, in Montreuil, Mondays. Hours differ between sources, and individual stalls open on their own schedule, so we quote each market's official site or paris.fr and flag where they disagree.

The market's own site says 350 antiques dealers offer pieces each weekend over 12,000 m², from antiquity to the 1990s. It calls itself the flagship of the Puces and the world's largest antique market, which is the market's own claim. The Puces site lists it at 96 and 110 rue des Rosiers and 18 rue Paul Bert.

The Puces site's page lists Friday 10 am to 1 pm, Saturday and Sunday 10 am to 6 pm and Monday 11 am to 5 pm, though the page shows a second, different schedule at the top, so confirm before you go. The stock includes furniture, lighting, paintings, tableware, jewelry, textiles and design.
