TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) — Just months after reopening following storm damage, Flea Market Tallahassee will close for good.
The announcement was made Saturday morning in a Facebook post on the flea market's page.
Flea Market Tallahassee will end operations on July 27, 2025. ABC 27 was able to confirm with the assistant manager that the market is closing due to storm damage. In a letter sent to vendors, the manager of Flea Market Tallahassee wrote that the decision was not made lightly and was due to the cost of rebuilding at the current county building codes.
The damage is connected to the winter weather we saw in the Big Bend and South Georgia in late January. At one point more than 300 booths were damaged or out of commission due to the snow and ice.
The flea market reopened in April. Some vendors were moved to tables, since their booths had to be demolished. When ABC 27 spoke with managers back then, they were hopeful about keeping the market going, telling us they were looking at construction ideas.
