More Than a Sarasota Market
Limelight isn't your standard pop-up market. The guest vendors are only the beginning.
Step inside The Bazaar and you'll find 40+ permanent local vendors offering art, jewelry, clothing, vintage finds, gifts, home décor, collectibles, and plenty of wonderfully unexpected things you didn't know you needed until you spotted them.
Then head outside to our courtyard, where Saturdays at The Bazaar come with live music, food, drinks, and plenty of places to hang out in the shade.
Come for the market and accidentally spend the afternoon. It happens.
Shop Local in Downtown Sarasota's Pop Up Market
One of the best parts of Limelight Market is knowing your purchases support local artists, makers, and independent small businesses. Instead of buying something mass-produced, you can meet the person who made it, designed it, found it, or dreamed it up.
Our guest vendor lineup changes every month, so even if you've been to Limelight before, there's always something new to discover.
Live Music Every Saturday
The Bazaar loves to have local musicians play. We have live music every Saturday from 12-3. During the Oct. 17th Limelight Pop Up Market, the Goodtimers will be playing.
Grab Lunch at Hamlet’s Eatery
All that treasure hunting can make you hungry.
While you're here, stop by Hamlet’s Eatery, our permanently located food truck at The Bazaar. Grab lunch, find a seat under the patio, and enjoy the music.
Beer, wine and, adult beverages are also available at the bar under the patio.
Make a Day of It
Limelight Market is designed for wandering. Browse the guest vendors. Explore inside The Bazaar. Meet local artists and makers. Find something wonderfully weird. Grab lunch. Listen to live music. Bring a friend. Make a new one.
You never quite know what you'll find at The Bazaar, and that's kind of the point. This Is Downtown Sarasota's Pop Up Market that Is truly special and unique.
