The EDGE Urban Marketplace opening this February in St. Petersburg

The EDGE Urban Marketplace opening this February in St. Petersburg

Big news for the EDGE District of St. Petersburg — The EDGE Collective introduces the EDGE Urban Market Place on the 1100 block parking lot between 1st Ave. S. and Central Ave, according to a release on the EDGE District of St. Petersburg’s website. Set to launch February 5, this new market will roll out in two phases. By divine happenstance, the official launch comes during Super Bowl weekend.

“It will provide an exciting activation of the lot until the permanent EDGE Collective development (with boutique hotel, courtyard, and food hall) can begin,” noted EDGE District Association members.

Phase One will include two 40-foot cargo containers, each with curated food & beverage concepts by noted local chefs, and courtyard seating.

During the Feb. 5 launch weekend, a full schedule of Super Bowl-related activities are planned. They include an NFL-celebrity hosted watch party on a jumbo LED screen, live music (incl. Grammy winner Robert Vilera & Vilera Son), family activities, Saturday Night party with notable radio hosts, farmer’s market, local artists, and vendor booths for local businesses. Vendor opportunities are available. Email info@305hospitality.com to see what opportunities are available.

After the Super Bowl, weekend activities will be ongoing at the Marketplace.

Then, Phase Two is expected to launch in late April. It will expand on Phase One with two additional 40-foot cargo containers for curated food & beverage, six smaller containers for retail, and 12 vendor kiosks. The Market coordinators will offer opportunities to local businesses to occupy those additional market spaces.
