Venice
The boardwalk itself is a market -- clothing, beachwear, and art sold directly by the people who made it.

Why We Go
Ocean Front Walk's vendor system is built specifically around work people made themselves, not resale -- clothing, jewelry, and art sold straight from the maker, alongside beachwear shops and boutiques on the blocks just off the boardwalk. If a Look from here catches your eye, there's a real chance the actual piece -- or something close to it -- is for sale a few steps from where it was photographed.
What You’ll Find

Crowd: Tourists and regulars mixed together, with vendors working the boardwalk itself.

Abbot Kinney Festival
Venice · Street fair
Returning after two straight years off — the festival's board pointed to a sponsorship slowdown as the reason it didn't run in 2024 or 2025. This year brings back hundreds of vendors along the boulevard, live music, food, and a 21-and-over beer garden, free to attend with valet-only parking.
