#FLEAONPHELPS – FAQ’S

WHERE WILL #FLEAONPHELPS OCCUR?

Great question! The name says it all – on Phelps Street. On Fri., Dec. 6th, from 4P-8P, we are doing a unique “pop-up” special edition of The Flea, right on the city’s newest pedestrian pathway – Phelps Street, downtown Youngstown. Please note: Seperate from the #FleaOnPhelps pop-up, we are utilizing our own, Bldg. space, located at 365 E. Boardman Street, 44503, to host Holiday Flea on Dec. 7th + 8th. For more info on Holiday Flea, visit http://YoungstownFlea.com/HolidayFlea/

WHAT ARE THE MAJOR CONSIDERATIONS?

Space is limited. It could be VERY cold (yes, even with our outdoor heating attempts). COVID-19 is still lingering in 2024 and we take the health of our community very seriously. Everyone’s safety is of our utmost concern. So at any moment We, The Flea, the CDC, Ohio State, and/or local health guidelines could change/alter, postpone or cancel Holiday Flea. Any applicable refunds would be given. Please make sure you understand this fully, as you weigh and consider applying to our Markets. We do NOT want anyone to experience a lost opportunities at another Market because of this. 

Additional challenges such as parking, limited space etc. (vendor participation can/will most likely will be limited to approx. 60-65). Please make sure you understand this fully as you weight and consider applying to our Market. We do NOT want anyone to experience a lost opportunities at another Market because of this. 

OK, WHAT ARE THE MARKET SPECIFICS?

A 10×10 tent, with a patio lamp and string lights will be provided. Understand that there is no wifi, no access to electric. Please bring your Holiday A-game (plus some cool holiday decorations – we’re going to need them).

That comes down to how we respond, in and to, this moment. We can make this amazing! We can smile through it all. We can come together as #FleaFamily, rally around our community of Makers, shoppers and supporters and do what we can, with what we have. To whom much is given, much is required. Tis’ the season. Let’s go!!!!
