Join 130 local vendors at The Cleveland Flea’s first outdoor event of 2017, April Flea, on Saturday, April 22 from 9am-4pm. Finally, it’s time to Flea again! Spring is here, so let’s greet the season with a smile! Plants and greenery are flooding back to the Flea. Open up the windows, take a deep breath, and find a little time to shop with us.


THE NUTS + BOLTS

Getting There + Parking

Need a map or directions? Head over here.

It's best not to drive. Uber. Bus. Bike. Book the Cleveland Brew Bus. But if you do drive, here are a few things to know:

  • If you need to drive, have a look-see at our shopper parking map below! We have negotiated a few free off-street options for places to put your car this season! 
  • We have 4 ADA accessible spots at the entrance to The Flea. You'll see them marked.
  • Parking in neighborhood parking lots is at your own risk. If there is a sign posted that you will be towed, you will be towed.
  • Don't park in areas on the street where it says, "No Parking" as you will either be ticketed or towed. 
  • There's ample parking if you're ok strolling through our lovely neighborhood.
  • Bought something big? Vendors might be willing to deliver it to you for an extra fee OR we also allow cars to drive in for pick up of large items.
  • We have bike racks for locking up your ride. 

Click any green "P" symbol for available lots, and try to avoid parking in lots marked with a red node.
