We purchased the VIP tickets which allowed us entrance into the market two hours before everyone else. Considering how packed it became, I am grateful we had those couple of hours to visit all the tables before crowds started to form. Prices range from $ to $$$ and expect amazing artistic creations ranging from jewelry/clothing to taxidermy and even human bone art (yes it's legal). My favorite was a break in case of emergency shadow box with all the weaponry needed to fight vampires. There were musical performances and the bar was open for business. The Globe Theater had 4 levels of artisans and the lighting was good enough to see everyone's wares. Overall it was a great, haunting and esoteric experience.

September 2018 was the first Oddities Flea Market and it was returned again May 18 and 19th of 2019. The vendors here are one of kind ranging from taxidermy to clothing to art prints. Some of the brands represented here are well known while others are smaller, independent artists and labels. Due to the overwhelming success of the inaugural Oddities Flea Market in September 2018, the Cohens made the second Oddities span over 2 days which included VIP entry tickets and an exclusive after party (separate ticket entry). This really needs to be a visual review to truly see what this experience is like, visit Oddities Flea Market in instagram and explore the Oddities Flea Market hashtag to see more.

A lot of their events are also themed too and this can go with various series and franchises (Ghibli, Sanrio characters, Adventure Time, etc.), trinkets focused, $20 and under days, and much more. I'm glad that this event is revitalizing life back into the Little Tokyo Galleria Mall, which I might visit if I had to go to Daiso, I want good taiyaki or walnut cakes, or we're just randomly wandering in the area. It's not a destination I necessarily go out of my way to go to if I'm in LT, so this is nice. Just know that the air flow AC might not be the best and even during the spring months it gets really muggy and warm inside, so I can't imagine the summer events. Hopefully it's improved. Also just a fair warning, depending on the popularity of the "theme" of the flea market, there might not be THAT much of what you're purchasing. I went to the Chiikawa themed one in the past and yes there were a COUPLE vendors with original art of Chiikawa, but like no vendors had any official merchandise (or everything was already sold out by noon). Even the pop up tat artists didn't have any Chiikawa ones NOR did they have temp tattoos (you know a lot of people would pay for this and great for kids). Go with lower expectations and don't expect the theme to be super on point, but again, nice event for the community.

They also had a few tattoo vendors that will give you one on the spot. They also have a few stores around the area. Didn't buy anything from the vendors at the flea market but did buy a matcha bowl and whiskey holder for a really good price along with a sun hat at one of the stores inside the galleria. Will certainly be back, they validate parking too. That's always cool. Lost a star because they didn't really have much restaurants or places to eat or grab a snack. They also have an Asian market/grocery store, so if you want to grab groceries after checking the flea market, that's convenient.

The blend of tourists and locals provides a real sense of a welcoming community, which is perfectly balanced with the vintage bright neon signage and industrial feel the space gives. I always gravitate towards the neapolitan personal pizzas, and finish off with mango sticky rice for dessert. However I have tried almost all of the vendors and none of them disappoint. Grab a runny egg and bacon sandwich from eggslut in the morning, grab some street tacos or pupusas for lunch, and finish off with a big warm bowl of ramen for dinner.

When it first opened, in 1917, it was dubbed the "Wonder Market" and considered the largest and…read morefinest public market on the Pacific Coast. At the time, LA was the country's 10th most-populous city and, the market, housed in an iconic Beaux-Arts structure, was LA's epicenter. Times have changed and that epicenter looks different now than it once did. Grittier, for certain, but inside, this booming food hall is vibrant and compelling. I walked over from my place of lodging twice during a 4-night stay and had I stayed longer I'd no doubt have returned a third time. Grand Central market is a great and historic food hall. At least two separate locals expressed their opinion that there's much better food to be found. Of course; LA is huge. But that doesn't discount the fact that pretty much everything one could desire is under this roof. "Wonder Market" indeed. As difficult as it is to resist temptation, should you find yourself here with no appetite for food or drink, know that the people-watching is equally a draw. Park yourself at a table and watch the goings-on. Grand Central Market is a real draw. If you're anywhere near downtown LA, I'd consider it a must-do and frankly, I can't wait to return.

I love the decor and thoughtful layout that allows for shoppers to comfortably be in the same space without bumping into each other.

The husband added another hat to his growing collection. Both were very reasonably priced. Aside from checkout, we didn't interact with the staff. They mostly chatted amongst each and walked around often in keeping the store organized. Street parking only but easy enough to find.

This place is small but packed with impressive and often unique mid-century pieces at Very reasonable prices. St Vincent's across the street is fine but if you're looking for quality and the right price, I've found finer quality furniture here and sometimes for a lesser price than at St V's. Been coming to Revivals since 2004 and there's always something interesting, little gems and big gems alike! A little note: make sure to check the schedule as they are open 4 days a week and I have made the mistake of coming here on days they were closed. Revival Furniture is an ideal place for the mid-century furniture lover or beginning collector with Milo Baughman taste on a Target budget.
