The guide to Stockholm's best flea markets

The bargain bonanza in Hötorget is held (almost) every Sunday all year round. You can't miss this loppis - it fills the square which is normally an open-air marketplace selling fruit, vegetables and flowers. If you plan on selling here, make sure you book in early as spots are seasonal.

The Roslagsstoppet car boot sale is a popular market located at Roslagsstoppet, a motorway rest area along the E18 near Norrtälje. You can find everything from small furniture, clothes, toys, books and collectibles to kitchenware and decorative items, depending on what the sellers bring with them.
