Flea market at Livoberezhna
While walking along Brovarskyi Avenue, be sure to pay attention to the market of antique items, which has long become a favorite place for collectors.

Flea market at Dnipro station
A unique flea market with a fishing theme is located near Dnipro metro station.

Some of the market goods are rare items that were found at the bottom of the Dnipro or stored in storerooms from the last century.
Address: Naberezhne Shose, 25/3
Kyivness — Vintage market
Kyivness is a unique format of antique market that has no permanent location or schedule. It has its own page on Facebook and Instagram, where the dates of its organization are published. Sometimes these are old halls of 20th-century mansions, sometimes modern exhibition centers. At such a vintage event, items from foreign high-fashion designers are presented: Prada, Celine, Gucci, YSL, Vince and others.
Admission is paid, and the event usually lasts two days.
