The only flea market I have seen in 20 years here is the one that used to be at the drive-in theater just before Everett on the east side of I5, but that closed a few years ago and a hotel was built on the site. There may be some left, but more typical is the Farmer's Market" which sells new craft items as well as foods and produce. I also go to a couple of "swap meets" that have more of a flea market type area at the fairgrounds in Puyallup and in Monroe. My favorite is the Early Bird that's next month. Most of it is old car/parts/tool related but there are buildings with booths selling everything
including clothes and non-car memorabilia.

The Fremont Sunday Market is fun, and pretty "eclectic" with everything from old furniture, 'yard sale' stuff, and "collectibles" to produce, artwork, and newer crafts.

The Georgetown Trailer Park mall, open Saturdays, is a flea market, art gallery, and vintage stores. Pretty cool.

Another option depending on what you might be looking for is

estatesales.net.....there are many of these throughout the Seattle area.
May not be what you are looking for, but worth a try.

Not exactly swap meets, but a lot of the cities/neighborhoods around here have community garage sales in the spring and summer. The Mill Creek community garage sale that happens the first Saturday in May and October is HUGE - particularly the one in May. We did our first one last May, and it was just as nutty as I had heard. I have never had such a successful garage sale - I only had a couple of boxes worth of stuff to donate to Goodwill afterward. People come from all over western Washington to go to this garage sale.

I think if you google particular neighborhoods they will give you the dates for their garage sales. We live in Phinney Ridge and people come from all over for the community garage sale held here. The next one is Saturday May 17!

I also love the Fremont Sunday Market and have found quite an eclectic mix of things there. Much more fun once the weather turns nicer.

I gave you all the info. LOL. It's the first Saturday in May, in Mill Creek. If you Google you'll probably find some news articles.
