There’s a new recurring market in town and we’re loving its waterfront location and fun vendors. The Park Market will come to Crane Cove Park in the Dogpatch every month through November with a different theme for each rendition. Read on for all the details.
The Park Market will take place from 11am-5pm on the following dates in 2023:
- Aug 6 – Summer Mercantile with local makers, artisans, and summer activities.
- Sept 2 – Secondhand Saturday with vintage fashion and neighbors’ garage sales.
- Oct 28 – Trick or Treat Market with Halloween activities, crafts, and trick-or-treating.
- Nov 19 – Holiday Mercantile with holiday gift shopping.

Each market will feature great live musical performances, delicious food and drink vendors, and fun activities including FREE paddle boarding lessons from Dogpatch Paddle. The paddle boarding lessons last 20 minutes each in small groups of up to 5 people learning to paddle board. Register in advance for a spot between 11am-2pm.
The Park Market is a collaboration between SF Parks Alliance and Sunset Mercantile. Its location in the 7-acre Crane Cove Park will make for a delightful new waterfront experience in one of SF’s coolest neighborhoods. The area features a public beach, ample green space, picnic and barbecue areas, a dog run, two children’s play areas, and much more.
“With waterfront views and the kind of weather you can only wish for at Ocean Beach, Crane Cove Park is tailor-made for an event like The Park Market. It’s the kind of place you want to enjoy all day, and with live music and local eats lining the park, you can,” said Drew Becher, CEO of SF Parks Alliance.
Although the current market dates only run through November 2023, SF Parks Alliance expects to continue the event in 2024. Keep up with the next Park Market happenings via the SF Parks Alliance website.
