SUNSET MARKET AT VIRGINIA KEY

East Coast Marketplace presents the Summer Saturday Market in Plantation, Florida – a weekly, open-air community market featuring local food, makers, and lifestyle brands.

Every Saturday from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM, guests can explore a curated mix of hot food vendors, artisan baked goods, fresh and prepared foods, handmade art and crafts, clothing and accessories, and pet-focused products. Grab a bite, discover local brands, support small businesses, and enjoy a family-friendly afternoon in the park.

Our market brings together hot food and food trucks, bakers, sweets and dairy vendors, beverage booths, artisans, fashion vendors, and pet brands to create a Miami–South Florida lifestyle experience in one place.

This is a rain-or-shine outdoor event, and we encourage guests to support local, shop small, and connect with the community each Saturday.
