This weekend all of Playa del Carmen will open their closets and bodegas and bring their no longer needed needed goods to the Grand Andale Bazar. A twice yearly event, the Andale Bazar is so much more than a giant garage sale. There will be music and entertainment and offerings from the Riviera Maya's many artists and craftsmen. If you haven't attended before, plan to take a few hours to stroll through the streets and check out the many and varied items looking for new homes.

Admission to the bazar is free. If you would like to sell your items at the event, tickets for table spaces are available from the Andale offices. Second hand and artisan items only. Call 984-803-1015 for more info.

Got some extra stuff you want to get rid of but don't want to man your own table? Donate your used items to Coco's Cat Rescue or Tierra de Animales to help them raise much needed operational funds. All donations are welcomed.
