A Guide to the Best Artisan, Farmer, Food & Flea Markets

‘Neath the Silvery Moon at the Brooklyn Night Bazaar

As we approached the Dekalb Market at about 7:30 PM last night, we began to see a line of people winding around the fence.  A line of people?  Waiting to get in?  Into a market?!  Yes!  It was the Brooklyn Night Bazaar!

We did get inside, and there were loads of people under the food and drink tent, many more at the concert, and even more shopping for handmade treasures underneath the twinkly lights.  The Night Bazaar is a collaborative effort between the Bazaar organizers and the Dekalb Market, which is open seven days a week in downtown Brooklyn.  It was a lovely, romantic setting, and a perfect way to spend a Sunday evening with friends.  I think I am in good company when I say that I hope the Night Bazaar becomes a regular event!

  2. my friend and i got there about 6pm and it was PACKED!! it was amazing! i saw several of my The New New Etsy team members vending and everyone said that business was great! so good to see people out shopping, eating, rocking out to the music, and drinking! of course, the weather was stellar! i’m hoping that the unique and funky DeKalb Market will become the IT destination for handmade and vintage goods in Brooklyn!
