Event Information

We’re excited to introduce something new this season at Sandy Pines—our Craft & Vendor Show! While flea markets have been a longtime staple, we’ve listened to feedback and refreshed the experience to make these events more dynamic, curated, and fun for everyone.

This year, we’ll be hosting four Craft & Vendor Shows, each running from 12:00–6:00 pm in the Flea Market Area. For the first time, vendor spaces will be open to a mix of Sandy Pines favorites and outstanding vendors from surrounding communities, bringing in a wider variety of handmade goods.

To keep the energy high, each event will feature live music from 3:00–6:00 pm (see the band schedule below) along with food trucks on-site, making it easy to grab lunch or dinner while you shop. During the same time, we’ll also be hosting a Kids Craft & Vendor Show, giving kids under 18 a chance to sell their handmade items—so expect even more creativity throughout the area.

We’ve also introduced a new vendor application process to help ensure a great mix of booths and avoid duplicates, creating a more enjoyable experience for shoppers and vendors alike. Additional vendor details, rules, and registration information can be found below.
