What is The Lil Flea?
As the second half of the name suggests, Lil Flea is one of the most curated flea markets in the country, organised during the year in a few major cities of the nation. However, contrary to the first half, there is nothing little about the flea festival! Lil Flea is organised with a great deal of effort, careful thought and creativity with the objective of supporting quality home-grown brands, independent artists and authentic interaction within the community.
It is a hub for unique, quirky products, cherrypicked carefully from the best of the lot! Lil Flea aids you in discovering products, fashion and styles that fall outside the boundaries of convention and typicality. If you enjoy spending hours scrounging for exclusive products, artefacts and trends in the streets of the city and snatching them up at awesome bargain deals, the Lil Flea is nothing short of paradise for you! Contemporary outfits, quirky bags, handmade jewellery or printed shoes, you should be hopping, shopping and never dropping at the Lil Flea!
