"If thrifting is your thing, I’d plan to visit the Rose Bowl Stadium on the second Saturday of the month for what’s billed as the world’s largest flea market, an event that draws over 20,000 people." - Keyla Vasconcellos

"The Largest West Coast Flea Market On the second Sunday of every month, bargain hunters, collectors, designers, tourists, and other curious shoppers head to the historic Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, where 2,500 vendors of furniture, accessories, clothes, crafts, vinyl, and more line the perimeter of this 92,000+ seat venue. The sheer size may be overwhelming, the sun may be beating, and it may be early in the morning—but if you come prepared in sneakers, a hat, and with coffee in hand, you'll be ready to hunt for treasure."

"The now classic Rose Bowl Flea attracts visitors from all over the world, so expect to compete with some serious shoppers. There’s a sprawling setup of antiques, housewares, and piles and piles of clothes to rummage through. Haggling is part of the deal. (And wear comfortable shoes.)"

On the second Sunday monthly, 2,500+ vendors fill the stadium grounds with vintage fashion, furniture, art, and ephemera. A designer favorite and a global destination for treasure hunting.
