DON’T MISS THESE POP-UP MARKETS

If you're planning your weekend in Singapore and love exploring unique shopping experiences, these pop-up markets are definitely worth checking out. I recently visited The Retro Factory’s vintage flea market at Katong Square and found an amazing selection of vinyl records, postcards, and vintage watches that bring back nostalgic memories. It's a great spot to hunt for rare collectibles and quirky souvenirs. For those who enjoy creative crafts and supporting local artisans, Apple Farmacy at 38 Jalan Pemimpin is a must-see. This market celebrates small businesses offering handmade trinkets, and they even have a community scrapbook where you can contribute with your junk-journalling materials, making the experience interactive and fun. If you're bringing family along, Old Habits Vintage Market at SAFRA Mount Faber Atrium provides a cozy, old-school vibe. You can browse vintage toys, enjoy retro arcade games, and relax at the cafe—perfect for a day out with kids. Don’t miss Mercury Festival: Fairies & Fables at the Singapore EXPO, featuring over 400 vendors. It’s one of the largest bi-annual art and thrift markets, packed with unique jewellery, vintage cameras, press-ons, and other cool items. Finally, the Night at Orchard market on Orchard Road brings a vibrant night market atmosphere with a mix of local and international creators. It’s the only night market in this iconic shopping district, making it a lively spot for an evening stroll and some night shopping. Each market offers something different, whether you’re into vintage collectibles, handmade crafts, or just enjoying the energetic market vibe. Plan your visit according to your interests and make the most of November’s pop-up market season in Singapore!
