Brocante de la Place Garibaldi

The monthly flea market of Place Garibaldi

Every third Saturday of the month, the majestic Place Garibaldi transforms into an open-air flea market. Around thirty professionals from the flea market and antique trade set up their stalls, offering a varied range of antique objects, curiosities, and collector's items. This monthly event has become a must-see for bargain hunting enthusiasts in Nice.

A remarkable architectural setting

Place Garibaldi is considered the most beautiful square in Nice. Built at the end of the 18th century on the model of Piedmontese royal squares, it features harmonious architecture with its arcades, trompe-l'oeil painted facades, and the Chapel of the Holy Sepulchre. This exceptional setting gives the flea market a unique charm, blending architectural heritage and the Niçoise art of living.

Antiques and curiosities

The exhibitors at Place Garibaldi offer a wide selection of items: antique trinkets, collectible tableware, art objects, books, prints, vintage jewelry, small furniture, and old advertising items. The atmosphere is relaxed, and exchanges with the dealers, often passionate and knowledgeable, are part of the pleasure of the visit. Prices remain accessible, and negotiation is encouraged.

In the heart of new Nice

Place Garibaldi enjoys a prime location, at the junction of Old Nice and the port. The tramway directly serves the square, and the numerous surrounding cafes and restaurants allow for extended strolls. The neighborhood, undergoing a revival, attracts a young and trendy clientele that mingles with traditional bargain hunters.
