Almost as a foretaste of the Christmas markets, every year the New Future Flea Market is repeated at the Cibeles Palace, which usually has the visit and support of Queen Sofia. Between November 13 and 16, the majestic Galería de Cristal will open its doors to gather unique pieces of vintage fashion, furniture, art and decoration.
This market, which celebrates its 54th edition, combines a careful selection of exhibitors with a charitable purpose: all profits go to the Nuevo Futuro association, which has been working for more than half a century to protect children and young people in vulnerable situations. In this edition, visitors will find everything from restored furniture and reinterpreted antiques to designer clothes, handmade jewelry, vintage tableware and fashion accessories for all ages. The entrance fee is 6 €, and the opening hours are from 11:00 to 22:00 hours.
The most iconic charity flea market in Madrid
Under the glass vault of the historic palace, the stalls of established and emerging designers are mixed with gastro and leisure spaces, where you can replenish your energy with proposals from renowned Madrid restaurants and collaborating wineries. During the four days of opening, there will also be an art area with small guest galleries, works by local artists and sustainable decoration firms.
Among the prominent names that have collaborated in previous years with the flea market are designers and solidarity brands such as Ágatha Ruiz de la Prada, Jorge Vázquez, Benetton or Mimoki, who donated some of their most iconic pieces to raise funds. In addition, the inauguration is also usually attended by the mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida.
