Two Marys' Makers Market returns to Alameda Marina on Saturday, Oct. 3, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., filling the marina's parking lot with local craft and vintage vendors right on the water.
- Where: Alameda Marina, 1815 Clement Ave., right behind The Launch apartments
- When: Saturday, Oct. 3, 2026, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
- Who's behind it: Two Marys' Makers Market, a spin-off of Two Marys' Mercantile on Alameda Marina
- Vendor cost: $150 for a 10-by-10 booth, with larger setups available
- Getting there: Parking is limited, so organizers recommend walking or biking
Where exactly is the Two Marys' Makers Market?
It sets up in the parking lot at Alameda Marina, 1815 Clement Ave., tucked behind The Launch apartment complex on the island's north shore. It's the same waterfront lot where sailboats and motor yachts line the docks just steps away, so shoppers get a marina view along with the vendor booths.
Two Marys' Makers Market is run out of Two Marys' Mercantile, the shop's flagship storefront at the marina. The market itself doesn't have a storefront. It's a one-day pop-up that the mercantile puts on every so often, and this is the next one on the calendar.
What can I expect to find at the market?
Organizers describe it on their market page as a bayside craft and vintage market, and the booth fee structure gives a sense of scale: standard spots run 10 feet by 10 feet, priced at $150, though vendors who need more room can arrange a bigger setup. A full vendor list wasn't published as of this writing, so exactly who's selling what on Oct. 3 will depend on who signs up between now and then.
How do I get there if parking is limited?
Alameda Marina itself has limited on-site parking, and organizers are asking visitors to walk or bike if they can. For anyone who does need to drive, there's some overflow parking a short walk away at the Grand Marina, near the mercantile's flagship shop. It's worth budgeting a few extra minutes to park and walk in.
What happens next
The market runs for one day, Oct. 3 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Vendor applications were still open as of late September, so the final lineup of makers and sellers will likely firm up in the days beforehand.
