Open year round 7 days week from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. approximately 300 vendors, which includes jewelers, clothing, appliances, purses, children's wear, artwork, shoes, and everything under the sun. It even has a food court in the center, if you get hungry and want to rest your feet. One side of the Market contains a large food market where you can buy fruit, vegetables, fish, delicatessan, flowers, etc.
You can spend the whole day shopping especially if the weather is inclement. One of my favorite places, having lived here for over 15 years, it is a place not to be missed!

I have been shopping here since 1992 and I used to enjoy shopping here. However, the vendor's feel they are doing us a favor instead of us doing them the favor keeping them in business spending our money buying their products.

They have become nasty and condescending to the buyers. I have watched the way they treat the elderly which is not a pretty sight. So do yourself a favor do not patronage this mall. Maybe without our money they will appreciate their customers more.

Festival Flea Market is a tradition. It's been a favorite of mine for more than 20 years! It doesn't pretend to be a department store. If someone expects all the warranty and guarantee and exchange policies of a big department store or mega discount site, that's where they should shop.

I find the Festival inviting, intriguing, and for the most part, the kiosk owners are more than helpful and friendly and try to work with you whenever possible. It's great fun. You may find just what you want or you may find something you hadn't even thought of. Your purchase may last a lifetime -- or not. But it's a fun experience. There are a couple of spots I must visit on each of my annual trips to Pompano. L & V for terrific women's clothing -- and a spot that sells a variety of unique leather handbags and accessories by Nancy Lucia and Pinky. Can't find this stuff anywhere else. And it's true quality.

Good shoppers are usually sharp and discrimnating. If not, then the following phrase comes to mind: "Caveat emptor" -- Latin for "let the buyer beware."
