WHAT TO BRING
While we do have over 700,000 sq ft of covered shopping, it's a great idea to check the weather to see what the forecast will bring. On sunny days wear sunglasses and a hat to protect from the sun. Colder months call for gloves, a scarf, and a coat, and remember to always, always wear comfortable walking shoes! The great news is, if you forgot it at home… don’t worry, because you’re sure to find it here!
WHEN TO COME
First Monday happens every single month on the Thursday - Sunday preceding the first Monday of the month. A great tip is to come on Thrifty Thursday or Sunday for shorter lines, better parking, first dibs on Thursday (the first day of the show) and great deals from vendors on Sundays (final day of show.)
WHERE TO PARK
Use the West Gate Entrance for easy access to parking, no traffic, just $5 per vehicle and a shuttle that takes you from the lot to the Famous Vendor Fields!
