Discover The Pasadena City College Flea Market And Swap Meet
On the first Sunday of every month, Pasadena City College hosts
a flea market and swap meet, from 8:00am to 3:00pm. This flea
market is located on the Pasadena City College campus, 1570 E.
Colorado Blvd. Pasadena, CA. 91106, (626) 585-7906, on parking
lots 1-4 along the south side. and the west side (Hill St.).
Over 450 vendors can be found there selling everything from high
end antiques and collectibles to toys and tools to new, used and
vintage clothing and used furniture. The prices are low, the
lines are short and the vendors are friendly and helpful. There
are also approximetly seventy (70) record vendors offering to
sell and swap records, compact disks and memorabilia ranging
from the big bands era to present day performers. Again the
prices are quite reasonable and the vendors are friendly,
helpfull and knowledgeable. They not only enjoy selling and
swaping music items, they also enjoy talking about records and
the music world. By the way, this is said to be one of the
largest, if not the largest, record selling venues in Southern
California.
According to Pasadena City College, admission to the flea market
is free (this is one of the few flea markets around that still
provides free admission) and parking, while sometimes difficult
is also free, at the parking garage on Del Mar Blvd. or on the
east side of campus at the Bonnie Avenue parking lot.
If you are looking for a flea market or swap meet that carries a
good variety of merchandise, has very reasonable prices and is
not overly crowded try the Pasadena City College Flea Market.
Free admission and free parking makes this a good place for an
outing. Even if you don't buy anything you will have a good time
and it won't cost you anything.
After you finish with the flea market and swap meet, take a
short drive up Colorado to Old Town Pasadena where you can dine
at one of the numerous restaurants, have coffee, a capuchino or
a lattee and a pastry at one of the bakeries, many with sidewalk
patios, take in a movie, visit an art gallery, go dancing, take
in a comedy act, shop at one of the many boutiques and stores or
just go people watching.
