Flea markets

You will find out that Danes like to organize flea markets “loppemarkeder”. You can usually find a flea market somewhere in your neighbourhood almost every weekend. Ads for “loppemarkeder” are usually placed in your local neighbourhood newspapers, on noticeboards in local supermarkets and a list is available online: Markedskalenderen.
