The Daytona Flea Market has been around since the early 80's and still manages to keep up with the times. Every time I come out here, I find something new that sparks my interest. This place is quite the maze and you can easily get lost, so definitely grab a map. I have been here many times over the years and I still have to walk an isle or two before I know if I am going the right way. The sellers here have just about everything you need, including: toys, household items, makeup & cosmetics, electronic repair supplies, video games, collectable figurines, anime items, costumes & custom masks, antique items, paintings & frames, clothing, weapons, CD's and cassettes, golf carts and golf cart repair services, window tinting services, auto speaker and stereo purchases/installation, dog grooming services, fresh local produce and so much more. One guy even tried to sell us a vacation package, so there is that too. I don't usually buy a lot when I do come here but I usually find something to take home. The last few times I have been out here I purchased some great CDs on the cheap, a leather knife holster and leather jacket from Byrd's Custom Leather Goods. I almost never leave here without getting a cold beer and a Chicago Dog from the Dog House. If I'm feeling frisky I might even pickup a funnel cake too. On my most recent visit I purchased a very nice stainless-steel cross at 75% off, which came to $11. I also had a patch sewn on my leather riding vest. The total was supposed to come to $23 something; however, they only charged me $20 because I paid cash. Usually, Byrd's doesn't let me down, but this time around the gent sewing my patch (Steven) sewed my right pocket partially closed, ugh! I did find out that if you buy a vest or jacket from Byrd's they will sew any patch on for free, cool! On a side note, there used to be a nice lady named Amy who worked at the Dog House. She was super sweet and we always had a great conversation. Well Amy wasn't there this time around. The other lady working the counter was a bit rude and was not happy about making two Chicago Dogs and waffle fries. She asked me if I even knew what a Chicago Dog was, really?? Also, she only had two dogs on the grill with 6 people in line and microwaved everyone's dogs, come on! Amy never did that, please bring her back or someone who cares. The Flea Market is a great way to spend the afternoon if you are in a shopping mood or it is raining outside. You would think that no one would be here on a rainy day but it's the complete opposite. In the summer it can be quite hot in here but they do have fans running with built in misters. There is also a fully enclosed air-conditioned section with great stores and restrooms. I highly recommend bringing your comfortable walking shoes, a USB powered fan or hand fan with you for warmer days. The Flea Market is only open on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 9am to 5pm. Definitely get here by noon because this place is a time warp. One minute its 1pm then its 4:30pm and everyone starts shutting down, then you kick yourself for not remembering where that one store was that had that cool item you should have got when you were there the first time, lol! We used to have a Flea Market just like this one in Sanford but it was actually better because it had a little theme park out front with rides. It was so cool then they tore it down and it has been sitting there for years, what a bummer. Many of the vendors who were at the Sanford location relocated to Daytona and are still there today. If you have never been to the Daytona Flea & Farmers Market, I highly recommend checking it out if you are in the Daytona Beach area.

We came here on a Sunday afternoon during Daytona Bike week 2024. It wasn't too crowded so we got to parking spot right at the front. It had been a while since we've been here so we were excited to see if there was anything new and there was! Lots and lots and lots of cool shops. The leather shop actually moved to a different location and is three times a size. My husband bought a cool patch and had it sewn on his jacket for $20. However they stitched through his pocket so now we have to take it back to get it fixed or I might fix it myself. We had a big fat Chicago dog at one of the food stands and it was delicious. Waffle fries came out tasty and hot. They have a small seating area at each food booth. This place is very large and can get confusing so make sure you grab you a map and magazine in the beginning It will save you some time. During the summer it can get very hot in there so bring your hand fan or neck fan for a more pleasurable experience. There are two big dollar stores inside the flea market They have everything you could possibly imagine and pretty good deals. On one of the rows They were selling jewelry for 75% off. My husband got a very nice necklace and cross for $11.00! What a great deal. They also have a pet grooming area. I had never seen that before. They have so much stuff here to make a head spin. Definitely give yourself 3 hours to see it all. We definitely will be back.

very cute place to shop! it's HUGE with lots of different stuff to look at. there's clothes, food, collectibles, movies, video games, toys, crystals, soaps, candles, jewelry, phone accessories, and so much more! the people are very nice and helpful as well. we stopped at the Thai restaurant to eat and the food was delicious! we got the teriyaki chicken, dumplings, and a fruit tea. it was so good! im very happy with what i came home with: 2 candles and a soap (which smell SO good), a book (which was being sold by the author- she even signed my book! i'm so excited to read it), a cute daytona beach shirt, and a cute, simple fanny pack! would def recommend stopping by, but plan to stay a while because it's huge and there's so much to see!

I am from Chicago and I am never in my life. Seen a flea market this large. They have everything. From, golf carts, two buttons. this place has it all. Apparently, this is a very popular place because it was jammed with people. If they had someplace like this in Chicago, I would definitely have never had a garage sale, because my late husband had a lot of collectibles, and I think I would've done very well with them at Daytona flea Whatever you need, you will be able to find it at Daytona flea market.

Fun way to spend a Friday afternoon that's not too far from home. One of my stops for my staycation! Like most flea markets in Florida, there is a sever lack of A/c in the the hot Florida sun. It's semi-indoors, so the heat isn't too bad. I could only stay for about 3 hours till I was too hot to continue. The food variety is like a farmers market meets a state fair . I loved the sweet garlic pickles I got. The guys behind the counter were patient and friendly taking care of the long line. There were other food and comic vendors throughout the market. Definitely a nice way to spend an afternoon in Daytona.

Went to the flea market Mother's Day weekend and let me tell you I felt completely unsafe here. We were stared down the entire time we were there by customers and shop owners alike. As if we were big buck deers wandering by, waiting for an open moment to shoot. I shouldn't have to worry about my safety and wellbeing, just trying to give people my business. Kinda crappy that y'all will support and allow this to happen to your patreons that try to shop here. The air is just thick with hate and disgust. I would avoid if you are apart of the LGBTQ+ community.

So we found about this place because they operate a campground during event weeks and we got a spot here. Over the course of our stay we made a visit to the the flea market. It is really big, in the course of over an hour we did not come close to seeing all of it.There was plenty of variety of goods here, I am no flea market expert but I was impressed with this one. I even made a purchase of a really unique loose tea steeping device.

We must have missed the flea market due to bike week. Or at least it was very confusing. There were signs directing us to the market but we navigated to the gate and was asked for a $10 admission fee that would be good for bike week. Luckily we did not pay because that area was mainly for bike parts or motorcycle stuff. Not what we were interested in. As we were driving out we noticed another are which was probably where the actual flea market was. We were short on time and patience so we didn't circle back. Maybe some better signs or someone directing traffic is needed?

Stopped in to check this place out. I have to admit they had lots of cool stuff. Great place to get a good walk in also.

Hubby and I went there today and had a great time! Don't understand the reviews that were less than good because there's a little something there for anyone who is looking for a unique item. The vendors were friendly and helpful even when you did not purchase an item from them. We didn't find the food area until we were ready to leave so we plan on making another trip. Found a little snack place that had enough for us to enjoy ice cream and a drink and sit and plan for more shopping. Came home with at least a half dozen items and we're not finished shopping yet. The car show was going on there today but my husband did not get to see it because it was finished by 2 PM which we were a little disappointing by. Maybe we will try that again the next time it's there.

This was the coolest flea market I've ever been to. It was not stuff you see at yard sales. The booths were clean and not junky! The place seemed to go on forever! You walk down row and look up and not only did that look like long way to go but others connected to it so you really have to keep eye on where you were lol. We came for race so right in front of parking lot they had pop up tents with nascar stuff. There's all kinds of eateries and each intersecting spot had food and beer booth! Lol..we bought all kinds of stuff today from shirts to Knick back stuff you've not seen before. My fav booth was 2 ladies making sand molds with shells in them. You choose mold and they had all kinds and you pick out shells or beach glass they had and they make a sand mold for you.. not bad prices on anything we got today.. we met some great people. Everyone was very nice and very helpful. There was a booth selling baby turtle kits for the kids too..a really great shopping experience.. if you walk in and don't buy something then at least you got your steps in cause I think when I looked we had spend better part of 3 hrs walking and checking things out lmao. It was a stormy rainy day and what's better than indoor flea market on a rainy day!!

I don't get the allure of this flea market. Everything was crazy expensive for mostly used or cheaply made items. We were actually hoping to find at least some good produce but a lot of it was looking old and also very expensive for what it was. It could be that we visited during bike week and maybe they purposely hiked up prices? Left empty handed and disappointed; wouldn't come back.

The Daytona Flea & Farmers Market is a long established flea market located just off of International Speedway Boulevard in Daytona Beach, Florida, which prides itself in being the "world's most famous beach." Whether this self appointed accolade is accurate or not, whether Daytona Beach is indeed the "world's most famous beach," this flea market is definitely a place that will comfortably reside in countless memories and continue to have people park in the grass and dirt parking area and walk the aisles seeking items either they came specifically for or seeking those items that they never knew that they needed.Today I came specifically for the pickles at the pickle booth. Truly wonderful. Unfortunately, they were closed as the owner had to have surgery, however, I was fortunate enough to find a spice and tea dealer and realized at that moment that I needed some spices and teas from the very friendly couple that ran this booth.Like most flea markets, there are some vendors offering some items that are definitely great quality and worth the cost and they also have vendors that offer items that you should just keep walking past.All in all, this is a great place to spend a few hours and I am sure that you will find certain items that you never knew you needed, but now after seeing them, you were struck with the revelation that you needed these items right then and now.This place is definitely nothing fancy, but flea markets probably shouldn't be. They should be a little worse for wear, maybe a bit tattered about the edges. That's half the appeal.All in all, I will give the Daytona Flea & Farmers Market five stars () and my recommendation. It is a long established piece of the history of Daytona and it shares happy memories with so many people. If you come here, you might find yourself one of those people who will hold fond memories of this place within your heart and soul.The flea market, again, like most flea markets, is only open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so plan accordingly. Again, it is just a no frills type place that offers a variety of items sold at various price points. Check it out, I think you will like it.

Aisles and aisles of good shopping fun. I don't come here so much anymore but that pickle guy tho! Yo! Better come while it's still a thing, this is the area's last holdout since Sanford, Frontenac Titusville, and the old St. Augustine fleamarkets in this style all closed up.A cornucopia of vendors. Plenty of produce and a mixed kaleidescope of mostly commercial resellers. I'm only ever really looking for secondary market garage sale type stuffs so I prefer the Deland Fairgrounds on Wednesday. ...but even that is thinning out.
