Phillip Dane Productions is launching an inventive and unique weekend event this summer that brings together the elements of a block party, flea market, and food festival. Located in the Historic Core of Downtown Los Angeles, Phillip Dane has christened it Downtown Flea. The four lot city marketplace will showcase up to 400 local indie designers and crafts people; emphasizing unique vintage, collectible and antique dealers.
“The Flea will take “Etsy” type designers from the web and showcase them in one distinct location,” Dane explains. “As far as I know, this event is the first of its kind to have a social media community within its website for the vendors: every seller will have their own url on DTFlea.com – allowing venders to showcase their products, write blog posts, connect with other venders, and bring awareness to their business.”
Downtown Los Angeles has become a frequented hot spot by Angelenos; for the area’s high end loft residential market, gourmet restaurant scene, hip bars and much more.
To support this lively scene, Dane has chosen to give Los Angeles the Downtown Flea that will not only feature hundreds of vintage dealers, talented designers and creative crafts people but also a variety of food truck options, popular local bands, and a private VIP ‘chill zone’.
There will also be a rock climbing wall to entertain the kids, and for those who would rather fly than drive, the Downtown Flea even features a helicopter landing pad located on top of its adjacent parking structure.
