Market Information

8am to 1pm
To have a general stall it is $40.00 spaces are roughly 4m x 4m, all stalls have to be booked and paid for prior to the date. Food Vendors are $50.00.
When you apply you will receive a confirmation email and if there is a space for you, in that email you will be given payment instructions and also told which carpark to go to the morning of the market date. You will be allocated a space in that carpark the morning of the market by one of our crew. Only ONE car can come in to the carpark per booking to control congestion of the market at set up time.
Set up is from 6.30 and pack down cannot start before 1pm.
BE PREPARED: Auckland has 4 seasons in one day - be a prepared stallholder and have a gazebo and weights or if you don’t have access to one a tarp or clear plastic sheeting to cover your items if there is some rain.

All bookings have to be paid for by 9am Weds morning prior to the market date - if unpaid the booking will be cancelled and offered to someone on the waiting list without further contact from Central Flea.

Market Etiquette:
Let Vendors Unpack: While the early morning hours are the peak buying time for collectors and casual shoppers alike,, letting the vendor unload their wares from their vehicle is an important piece of flea market etiquette. You don’t have to wait until the entire load is set and staged for selling, but if a seller is still pulling out boxes from the trunk, its impolite to just go rooting through their wares. Give the sellers a few minutes to get settled before jumping right into their stuff.
Keep It Neat: If your searching through a pile of clothing or a stack of records, common courtesy dictates that you return the unwanted items back to their place. If another flea marketter is looking through the same pile, straightening up is not quite possible. But otherwise, good flea market etiquette means respecting both the vendor and the vendors items by not leaving them strewn about.
Cash is King: Change can be hard to come by for vendors especially if every shopper they come across is breaking those big bills for small purchase - please be prepared with smaller bills and coins.
Choose to Reuse: And please remember to bring along your own reusable bags and coffee mugs to help us be as green as possible.
