Brimfield Antique Flea Markets is the largest and oldest outdoor antique flea market in the United States. The city of Brimfield transforms a small New England town to hold a fair three times a year in Brimfield, Massachusetts, each run lasting six days. The event is made up of 21 independent shows spread across multiple fields, with thousands of dealers selling antiques and collectibles of all kinds, such as furniture, posters, decorations, plates, garden/outdoor decor, and many more. Hours vary by day and show, but most shows are open from 8am to 5pm. On opening day (Tuesday), many dealers start as early as 6am. All shows run rain or shine.
Brimfield is widely known as the Antique and Collectibles Capital of the United States. Because each of the 21 shows is independently run, the atmosphere and stock vary from field to field, which keeps it interesting across the full six days. The vendor mix is broad, so you’ll find everything from serious antique dealers to more general collectibles sellers. It attracts both trade buyers/professional antique dealers and the general public.
