What’s your weekend looking like? Club nights, bar-hopping or a slow wander through a flea market?

Vintage shoppers, take note – and bring cash. Hey! Thrift returns to its original riverside spot at Mahapho Riverview on Song Wat Road, and it’s every bit as packed as you remember. Anyone who caught the first round knows the drill: racks loaded with secondhand clothing, plenty of solid finds at prices that don’t sting, plus accessories and small home decor pieces scattered throughout. Food and drink stalls line the edge, with views across the Chao Phraya River keeping things easygoing. Already planning a wander around Song Wat? Add this to your route.

May 1-3. Free. Mahapho Riverview. 2pm-9pm

The long-awaited flea for vintage lovers returns with BANAKÉ x MICHELUI 2026 EP.2, and this round goes bigger, bolder and more iconic by design. The setting shifts from PAPAYA Studio to Hua Lamphong Railway Station, one of the city’s most storied landmarks, giving the whole thing a cinematic edge. Inside, it runs as a full vintage community. Spend hours moving between furniture and home décor zones, rare finds and pieces that verge on one-of-a-kind. Fashion gets a strong showing too, with tightly curated rails aimed at serious collectors. Food and drink stalls keep things ticking from afternoon until midnight, making it easy to stay longer than planned, meet people and catch a soundtrack that carries the night through.

May 1-4. B200 via here at B250 at the door. Hua Lamphong. 2pm-mignight

Cheeze Pop-up Market returns with a fresh excuse to update your wardrobe, pairing fashion finds with live sets at Flea Spirit – Market & Music. More than 80 vendors set up shop, covering everything from clothing, shoes, bags and accessories to vintage pieces, home décor and plenty of low-key gems worth a closer look. Take your time with it. The layout suits an easy wander, with stalls that reward a bit of patience. This round adds a stronger music line-up, with carefully picked artists stepping up for live performances that carry the evening forward. Once you’ve secured a few new favourites, stick around, grab a drink and let the soundtrack take over for the rest of the night.

The Tay Flea Market crew return for another season, setting up a full-scale cultural takeover at Suanluang Square. Expect more than 200 vendors, with rails of vintage threads, racks of accessories, second-hand cameras, vinyl records and retro home pieces all up for grabs. Elsewhere, test-drive vehicles double as pop-up stalls, reworked into compact shops selling everything from pre-loved clothing and records to vintage furniture and homeware. It goes well beyond browsing. Food and drink vendors keep things lively, so it’s easy to settle in, graze your way around and let the evening run on longer than planned, with the city ticking away just below.

May 7-10. Free. Suanluang Square. 4pm-11pm
