Paris Flea Market Shopping + Tips
Shopping at the Paris Flea Market is the perfect way to spend a weekend. In this video, we explore the most famous flea market in Paris at Porte de Clignancourt called Les Puces de Saint-Ouen and share our tips for how to maximize your visit. 'Les Puces' means 'the fleas' and this market is made up of many smaller markets. It covers 7 hectares and there are between 120,000 and 180,000 visitors every weekend! We recommend going to Marché Vernaison for the most fun browsing and the best chance of finding something you can afford (in some areas the prices are in the 5 figure range...). Here you'll find many stalls with antiques, stationary, clothing, beads, cameras, buttons, furniture, home goods, and many more items to dig through. It's so big that you really need a map. We're sharing our favourite stalls and where to find them. If you're someone who LOVES thrifting and going to markets in general (like me!) then going here will feel like visiting the mothership. Even if you don't usually enjoy this sort of shopping, however, you'll still find it interesting because there are so many unique finds and it's a great chance to interact with locals.

Le marché aux puces de Saint-Ouen, Paris, France
The marché aux puces de Saint-Ouen in Paris (Porte de Clignancourt Metro station) is huge! We only had time for 1 market, and we chose the Vernaison Market. Enjoyed walking the winding lanes to see everything from antique furniture to trinkets.

Marché aux Puces de St-Ouen flea market. Bargain hunting in Paris.
Visiting the world famous of Marché aux Puces de St-Ouen flea market is a wonderful way to spend a day in Paris. A quintessentially French experience. It’s actually a series of 15 markets scattered around a few blocks that together, make up the Marché aux Puces. It’s mostly an antiques market where professional shoppers hunt for bargains. As one man’s junk is another man’s joy, it's impossible to walk away empty handed. Here you'll find antique furniture, ranging from baroque to Art Deco and Fifties, dish ware, perfume bottles, clocks, bronzes, toys, keys, books, antique lace, linens, military collectibles, old tools...The thrill is in the hunt. The inventory is always changing. It’s definitely a must visit for antique lovers but for those who love French music just like myself, it’s a great way to spend a weekend lunch at Chez Luisette (please see below). The real reason why people come here is to hear singers belt out songs by Piaf, Brel, Aznavour. The most authentic French experience ever. Enjoy!

Authentic French Music in Paris, Chez Louisette, Marché aux Puces de Saint-Ouen.
I love going to the Paris flea market to search for treasures, and to visit vendors who have become friends over the years. When I’m there, I always have lunch at a Chez Louisette that is just as exceptional for its character as it is for the food.This place is an institution. On a tiny stage in the corner, Manuela, 75 years old channels Edith Piaf, belting out her most famous songs accompanied by an accordion player and a pianist on a small keyboard. She’s been entertaining patrons there for more than forty years. I fear another generation could not possibly provide the same ambient experience. So factor in a lunch at Chez Louisette on your next trip to Paris before it's too late. Don't go for the food (although it is very good) , go for the fun!

Marché aux Puces de St-Ouen - Paris
Covering seven hectares, 3,000 traders and up to 180,000 visitors each weekend, the Marché aux Puces de St-Ouen is generally thought to be the biggest flea market in the world. If this conjures up images of a sprawling field filled with broken bed frames, faded curtains and sofas with the stuffing coming out, you're in for a surprise (and are better off going to the Montreuil version). The fleas left long ago, and since 1885 what started as a rag-and-bone shantytown outside the city limits has been organised into a series of enclosed villages, some entirely covered and others with open-air streets and covered boutiques for the antiques dealers. South of this sprawls the canvas-covered part where African tat, joss sticks, fake Converse trainers and cheap batteries are perused by crowds of teenagers - best avoided unless you're after that kind of thing.
In recent years rents have shot up. The result is that much of the Puces is more like a museum than a flea market, and restaurants are swiftly replacing antiques dealers who can no longer make ends meet. But once you get under its skin, the Puces still offers an intoxicating blend of the sublime and the ridiculous. Repeat visits pay off and the more you banter with the sellers (preferably in French) the more bargains will reveal themselves, especially in the couple of streets that still sell unrestored objects.
The main street is rue des Rosiers, and off this runs Marché Malassis (toys, vintage cameras and furniture), Marché Dauphine (furniture, ceramics), Marché Biron (expensive lighting, furniture and objets) and Marché Vernaison (more varied, with fashion, a gilding shop, books, prints and kitchenware). The open-air Marché Paul Bert (one of the two markets owned by the Duke of Westminster) has some beautiful 19th- and 20th-century furniture, though you'll need to bargain hard. But if you are looking for genuine bargains and unrenovated things Marché Lecuyer is the place to head: as the home of house-clearance specialists, it's the closest thing you'll find to a reclamation yard and many of the traders have warehouses that they may open for you if you are searching for something in particular.
Top tips
Enter the market from Garibaldi métro rather than Porte de St-Ouen - a longer trek on line 13 but you avoid the crowds and new tat.
Visit on a Monday morning, a cold, wet or snowy day, or in mid August - you're more likely to pick up a bargain.
If you like the look of something, don't pick it up or touch it. This already shows the dealer that you want it. Be prepared to walk away if you really want that good deal.
Bring cash with you (but keep an eye on your wallet). Some only take it, and for others it's a good bargaining tool. There is only one cashpoint and there is always a queue.

Rosiers Les Puces : le plus grand grenier du monde | Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine
La renommée du quartier est due tant à la présence du Marché aux Puces qu’à celle du stade Bauer et du Red Star, son équipe mythique de football depuis 1909.
C’est dans les années 1870 que les chiffonniers de Paris s’installent à Saint-Ouen sur la zone des Malassis. Vinrent ainsi se mêler aux roulotes des gitans, installés déjà depuis fort longtemps : biffins, crocheteurs, fripiers, chineurs qui deviendront ensuite brocanteurs et antiquaires.
Avec le temps et l’arrivée du métropolitain en 1908, les brocanteurs n’en peuvent plus de déballer et remballer quotidiennement leur charreton. C’est ainsi que naît naturellement le concept des marchés.
Le Marché aux Puces regroupe aujourd'hui 14 marchés dotés d'une offre et d'une ambiance unique. Ouvert tous les samedis, dimanches et lundis, le marché aux Puces est aujourd’hui la plus importante concentration d'antiquaires, de brocanteurs et de fripiers du monde avec plus de 2000 stands et boutiques. Le plus grand grenier du monde est devenu un lieu incontournable de tourisme et voit chaque année plus de 5 millions de visiteurs déambuler dans ses allées.
C’est une expérience originale du Paris populaire, une promenade riche de surprises, de musiques et une mine d’or pour les amateurs de pièces vintage, d’antiquités ou de vêtements tendance et de costumes d’époque.
Django Reinhardt et le jazz manouche ne sont jamais très loin non plus et 60 ans plus tard, les accords de guitare de Marcel Campion, le roi des forains, résonnent encore tous les week-ends à la Choppe des Puces ou chez Louisette.
Ces dernières années, les puces se renouvellent et se modernisent avec de nouveaux commerces issus de la mode et du design à l’image du restaurant Ma Cocotte, imaginé par le français Philippe Starck, ou d’Habitat Vintage qui présente des pièces uniques de ces anciennes collections.
Les Puces de Saint-Ouen fêtent l'Asie
Peu le savent, mais les Puces de Saint-Ouen (Puces de Saint-Ouen) sont le 5e site le plus touristique de France. Elles sont en fêtent jusqu'au lundi 8 octobre avec pour thème l'Asie.
Intervenants : Benoit Fauquenot, antiquaire; Joëlle Juhen-Gilibert, antiquaire; Stéphanie Duplaix, directrice du marché Paul Bert Serpette
