Spend Small Business Saturday With 150 Local Makers at Liberty Station
There is shopping, and then there is shopping where the person who made the thing hands it to you. The San Diego Made Holiday Market returns to NTC Park at Liberty Station for two days over Small Business Saturday weekend, with more than 150 local makers set up across the park.
More Than 150 Makers, All of Them Local
Every vendor here is an independent, handmade small business based in San Diego or a surrounding Southern California community. Artists, designers, and creative entrepreneurs, gathered in one place for the weekend.
That means you buy straight from the person who made the work. Ask how something came together and the answer comes from the maker. That is a good reason to budget more time than you think you need.
Pick Up a Scavenger Hunt Card on Your Way In
Grab a card at the market entrance, work through it while you browse, then bring the finished card to the information booth for an artisanal gift. They go while supplies last, so start early.
The rest of the weekend fills in around the shopping. Live music, interactive art and workshops, kids’ activities, free photo ops, and food trucks keep things moving between booths.
It is built for families, so bring the kids. This is the kind of market that turns a quick errand into most of an afternoon.
Where Your Five Dollars Goes
Admission is $5 presale or $6 at the door, and kids ten and under get in free. There is also a ticket upgrade that comes with a limited-edition shopping bag.
That entrance fee supports San Diego Made, a 501(c)(3) non-profit that keeps affordable creative spaces running, funds accessible arts programming, and puts resources in the hands of local artists and makers across the city.
Buy online ahead of time or pay at the market entrance. Presale saves you a dollar either way.
See you there!
