Ferias in Buenos Aires

Here are the publicly listed ferias (flea markets, street fairs) available from the most updated sources I could find as of March 20, 2009, for your shopping pleasure. Check with your concierge or with tourist information offices in case schedules and locations have changed when you visit. I’ve listed the ferias in the city of Buenos Aires in alphabetical order by neighborhood, followed by ferias in selected communities in Greater Buenos Aires.

Unless specifically noted in the description, all listed ferias take place Saturdays, Sundays and holidays from 11am to 8pm and feature typical flea market goods. Many also feature music and street performances.
