If it’s Saturday, scour Frederiksberg's famous flea market. The neighbourhood’s affluence is reflected in the quality of the goods, and seasoned treasure hunters head in early for the best finds. There’s usually plenty of local and international fashion (predominately for women), plus the odd Danish design collectable in the mix of ceramics and glassware.
The market is held in the car park adjacent to Frederiksberg's city hall.
