The most traditional flea market in Düsseldorf is the Trödel & Antikmarkt am Aachener Platz. Excellent bric a brac can be found on Saturdays from six until mid-afternoon. Centrepiece is a large permanent marquee with antique dealers and the big attraction of Café Sperrmüll, where live bands perform mostly jazz or blues. Regulars enjoy the friendly atmosphere. 

Surrounding outdoor stalls large and small run by professionals or amateurs. From boxes on the ground to fancy displays, old and new, dilapidated or polished vendors all vie for the attention of punters on the hunt for something unique, special or cheap.
