Smart Bets: Paris of the South Flea Market

It's been awhile since the Dreamland Flea Market was just a quick drive for local bargain hunters. But an even more wonderful world of kitsch, craft and ephemera is readying its vendor booths. The Paris of the South Flea Market holds a grand opening celebration at at 530 Lyman St., in the River Arts District, Friday-Sunday, July 8-10. Hours are daylight to dusk, Friday-Sunday. First, second and fourth weekends of the month will be a traditional flea market; third weekends are devoted to antiques. Food trucks and live music will be part of opening weekend. In the future, the flea market will also include beer and wine sales. parisofthesouth.co.
