    Taking the Metro? Numerous bus stops and rail lines surround the venue. Use the online planner to route your trip.

  • Over $750,000 is injected into your local economy at each market - and with the majority of our sellers identifying as women and BIPOC, you’re making major change and positive impact! By choosing to come shop local, with up-and-coming small businesses, your dollars have way more impact! Business taxes go back into community infrastructure (like public schools, libraries, parks, fire stations), and as owners/designers/artists make more sales they then start to employ others and spend more on local services!

    Also, simply by attending you are taking part in community and creating cultural experience, which is so important. In short, YOU ROCK!

  • What are the hours of the market? The market is open 10am-4pm both Saturday and Sunday.

    Are dogs allowed? We’re dog owners ourselves and love furry friends, but unfortunately LA County Health Dept guidelines do not allow dogs in indoor spaces because there is food and drinks served in the event. However, service dogs are of course allowed.

    Is there AC? What if it rains? Since 2008 we’ve held our markets in elevated, indoor atmospheres. Whether it’s hot outside or raining, we’ve got you covered. Literally.

    Are babies and kids free? Of course! All kids 14-and-under get in free and don’t need tickets. Plus we have a Family Fun Zone with games!

    Is there an area to breastfeed and/or change diapers? Absolutely. We have a private space within the Family Fun Zone at the market.
