THE FANCY FLEA LAKELAND IS NOW HELD INDOORS AT THE RP FUNDING CENTER FLORIDA (updated 2023)

THE FANCY FLEA, LAKELAND 2013

In just a few short years, Lori Powell of Lakeland, Florida has built one of the best flea markets in the country.  Held twice yearly, The Fancy Flea, includes some of the most talented vendors from Florida.  They sell everything from antiques, furniture, vintage clothing, jewelry, art, and more!  The April 2012 show was the largest to date, with over 200 vendors. Vendor’s arrived in the wee hours of the morning with trucks loaded with their latest finds and best creations.  They quickly unloaded filling up several streets in the historic district.  As the sun rose tents made of lace, burlap and vintage fabric lined the streets.  Each one resembling a beautifully decorated boutique.
Customers arrived early, some returning looking for their favorite vendor.  Others were first timers to the market looking to find something special.  No matter their styles there was something for everyone.  Great buys on furniture, home décor, jewelry, clothes and art were found around every corner.
