Dodger Stadium venue for new flea market

LOS ANGELES, (UPI) -- Dodger Stadium will be the home of a new monthly flea market that the operators say will be far more than an outdoor rummage sale.

The LA Flea Market in the ballpark's parking lot will feature live music, food trucks, a rock-climbing wall for the kids and room for 2,500 vendors.

"And we can accommodate 25,000 people," market organizer Phillip Dane told the Los Angeles Times.

There will be all sorts of items for sale, and a "carryout" service will make it easier on shoppers who would otherwise have to limit themselves to what they are willing to lug around, the report said.

"Every time you purchase an item, you get a ticket," Dane explained. "When you are finished shopping, you give your tickets to a runner who will then go out and pick up your merchandise and put it in your car."

The market will debut July 18 and will cost $5 with parking included. A $10 ticket gets shoppers in two hours before the general-admission opening time.
