Aliso Viejo’s Free Artisans Market Returns November 8 at Aliso Viejo Ranch

ALISO VIEJO, Calif. — October 31, 2026. Aliso Viejo is inviting residents to discover handmade crafts, gifts and locally produced goods at its Fall Artisans Market next weekend.

The city says the market will take place Sunday, November 8, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Aliso Viejo Ranch, 100 Park Avenue. Admission is free, and visitors do not need to be members of a club or association to attend.

What visitors can expect

The city describes a selection of art, jewelry, home décor, accessories, apparel, seasonal items and treats from independent local makers and small businesses. The official announcement also mentions children’s activities and photo opportunities. Specific vendor inventory and prices are not guaranteed; goods sold by participating businesses may cost extra even though entry is free.

Why shopping local matters

Community markets are a way for shoppers to meet the people behind their purchases and learn about smaller businesses they might not otherwise encounter. For vendors, a neighborhood event creates an opportunity to demonstrate their products and develop customer relationships.

The city’s September vendor invitation does not confirm that applications remain open on October 31. Interested sellers should check directly with the recreation department before assuming space is available. For visitor accessibility, parking and any weather-related changes, contact Recreation & Community Services at 949-425-2550.
