5 Flea Markets in Singapore to Explore with Your Family

Singapore may be small but there are definitely no lack of interesting activities. Individuals with hearts for entrepreneurship and social causes have championed initiatives to organize different forms of flea markets to appeal to the masses. What an appeal and awareness they achieved. We never know such flea markets exist until we discover them. Let’s check them out.

#1 – SINGAPORE REALLY REALLY FREE MARKET (SRRFM)

The Singapore Really Really Free Market is a temp market where everything is free. It’s so hard to convince a Singaporean that it’s possible to receive a free item or service. Literally. But it’s true. Nothing is for sale and everything is shared free at the events. Anyone with stuff or skills to share are welcome to, and if you find something you want, you’re welcome to take it. The next session is expected to be in February 2016. Stay tune at its Facebook for the latest update.

 The monthly MAAD, or Market of Artists and Designers, falls on the first or second Friday from 5pm to midnight. Hosted by The Red Dot Design Museum Singapore, it focuses on original creations by local artists, designers and crafters, with local bands performing and DJs spinning.

#5 – KRANJI COUNTRYSIDE FARMERS’ MARKET

The Kranji Countryside Farmers’ Market is an authentic local farmers’ market held every quarter. All the more we should support local produce. After visiting a farmers market in Gold Coast, we fell very much in love with this concept.

The Kranji Countryside Association (KCA) is the organizer of the Kranji Countryside Farmers’ Market. What a fantastic job it has done. It has been growing from strength to strength as large crowd gather in every event. The farmers’ market is an event for the whole family. Connect with them at their website and Facebook.
