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. 

Between April and September you can bag some classic bargains at at Hornstulls Market. You'll find jewellery, vintage fashion, antiquities, art and masses of other treasures sold from stalls along the waterfront. There are also several food trucks, serving up a wonderful mix of streetfood. The market is open on Saturdays and Sundays - whatever the weather.

Every Saturday a colourful flea market is held at Plåtparken in Skanstull. Clothes, shoes, accessories and other bits and bobs all change hands here, and sellers are often of the more fashionable persuasion.  

This busy loppis right in the middle of Karlaplan is open on Saturdays in summer and autumn. Anyone can sell their wares here - you'll find handmade, artisan products as well as no-longer-needed clothes and other things. Shopping at flea markets is great for the environment and it's also great fun strolling around the stalls hunting for hidden treasures and bagging one-off bargains.

Hågelby loppis is south Stockholm's car boot sale. Several hundred sellers and thousands of bargain-hungry shoppers gather in Hågelby park in Tumba on summer days. Hunt for treasure among countless unique, fun and practical items.

Out in the countryside, just 10 minutes by car from Täby Centrum, Täby car boot sale is held from June to October. Masses of cars park out in the fields with their boots filled with bric a brac and hidden treasures. Grab a hot dog or coffee when you need a break.

A large car boot sale is held two Sundays a month in between Stockholm and Norrtälje. Sell things yourself or bag a bargain.
