Join us for the Holiday Marketplace at Mission Trails, a two-day event celebrating local artisans while supporting the mission of the Mission Trails Regional Park (MTRP) Foundation. Held at the Mission Trails Visitor Center on Saturday and Sunday, November 15–16, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., the Marketplace features a curated selection of handmade goods, from ceramics and jewelry to textiles, home goods, and gourmet treats. Vendors are selected for their sustainability efforts and nature-inspired designs, aligning with the park’s values. Best of all, 30% of every vendor’s gross sales goes directly to the MTRP Foundation, helping to preserve and protect one of San Diego’s most cherished natural spaces. Admission is free, and all ages are welcome (please leave pets at home). The event is cashless—only card and Apple Pay will be accepted. Complimentary shuttle service will be available from overflow parking areas, and guests are encouraged to explore alternative park entrances, such as East and West Fortuna Staging Areas, Old Mission Dam, and Kumeyaay Lake Campground. Whether you’re shopping for meaningful gifts or simply soaking in the festive atmosphere, the Holiday Marketplace is a wonderful way to support local artists and give back to the park.
