IJ-Hallen
One weekend a month the IJ-Hallen, former halls of the NDSM shipyard in Noord, fill with a flea market of 600 stalls. The organiser calls it the biggest flea market in Europe. It is indoors, but I amsterdam still advises dressing warmly. Unlike most markets on this page you pay to get in. The organiser mentions unique home furnishings and clothing at very low prices.
