2008 NEWS: FARMERS MARKET SECTION RETURNS!
Established in 1990, the Fremont Market has evolved into a thriving and diverse European-style, world flea market that goes all year 'round every Sunday. Now that Ballard Farmers Market is bursting its belt, we're bringing the Farmers Market component back to Fremont this season by popular demand.
The market hosts anywhere up to 150 vendors who continue to delight the crowds and treasure hunters week after week with everything you can imagine and some things you can't - antiques, collectibles, bygones, retro, vintage and original clothing, estate sale treasures, tools, deluxe junk and the cream of regional garage sales (pre-selected by professionals.) In addition there is constantly changing bazaar of colorful and surprising world imports as well as new and original designers, artists and craftsmen showing with stunning, heart warming, one-of-a-kind and often improbably wonderful offerings. This season we have great street food including Veracci pizzas, French crepes, Chicago style dogs, Tamales, Thai desserts and much more. The market is truly a magic box where anything and everything is possible. It's free to the public, pet friendly, bike accessible and goes on rain or shine.
Against the backdrop of the multitude of shops, bistros, cafes and multi-ethnic restaurants, and delightful trompe l'oeille sculptures, Sunday in Fremont makes a grand day out. The market is one mile north of the space needle at the north end of the Fremont bridge, an easy 10 minute ride from downtown Seattle or the waterfront.
In 2000 the Market split in two, sending the Farmers Market and a number of our original craftsmen to the adjoining neighborhood of Ballard, where it continues to thrive today as our sister market in the picturesque old historic section of Ballard Avenue. The markets have continued to grow adding three new farmers markets. Meanwhile, we hope you'll join us here at the "Center of the Universe", to discover relaxed, lazy Sundays of brunching, browsing, treasure hunting and exploring the rest of Fremont while you're here. Who knows what you'll find? Want to sell here? Anybody can - its easy and fun,just go the next page, Fremont Info.
