It’s time to hit the trail, St. Pete! This Saturday, May 7, from 3-8 pm, the Pinellas Trail and 22nd Street South are being transformed into a massive showcase of art, food, shopping and tons of local goods. The St. Pete Spring Market is a unique bike-and-pedestrian-friendly pop-up market experience with over 200 places to shop.

The sprawling market offers a mix of indoor and outdoor areas as galleries, shops, restaurants and breweries in the area will be showcasing local makers inside and out. In addition to the brick-and-mortar businesses participating, the market has curated an incredible list of local makers and food vendors who will set up in the grassy and paved areas alongside the trail, including two sections put together by St. Pete’s favorite independent business supporter LocalShops1. (Be on the lookout for I Love the Burg favorite Baked in the Burg for delicious deep-dish cookies.)

The gigantic community-driven festival is a celebration of all things St. Pete, bringing a showcase of art, food, drink and music to the city during its most beautiful time of year. In addition to the pop-up market along the trail, visitors will be able to explore the Morean Arts Center for Clay, The Factory, 22 South Food Hall, Daddy Kool Records, Atelier de Sosi, Arts Xchange and many more beautiful spaces filled with local talent.

In addition, attendees are invited to stop in for a drink at Bayboro Brewing, find their perfect fitness routine at The Body Electric Athletic, grab a bite at Urban Stillhouse, and even take a tour through classic Old Florida at The Fairgrounds.
