Why Vendors LOVE being In The Loop
-
For over eight years, In The Loop has connected curated small businesses with thousands of holiday shoppers from across Temecula and Southern California. Our markets attract loyal returning guests, new visitors, and create opportunities to connect with boutique owners, wineries, salons, event planners, and other local businesses that often lead to future collaborations and wholesale opportunities.
-
Every vendor is thoughtfully selected to create a diverse, high-quality shopping experience. We prioritize creativity, craftsmanship, and originality, ensuring guests discover something new while giving each vendor the opportunity to stand out.
500+ vendors participate in our events each year.
50%+ of our vendors return annually, while we intentionally reserve space for new businesses to keep every market fresh and exciting.
-
We invest in comprehensive marketing campaigns to help drive attendance and maximize exposure for our vendors. Our promotions include social media, email marketing, community partnerships, local event listings, and targeted advertising.
100,000+ social media reach
39,000+ engaged local followers
-
Our markets are known for their positive, supportive atmosphere. We believe the best markets are built on community. We foster a welcoming, collaborative environment where vendors support one another, share ideas, and celebrate each other's success.
“We love being part of these markets because the community always shows up, supports local businesses, and our loyal customers come back every month to find us, it truly feels like a community coming together to support locals.”
“We love Merry Little Market because it’s where the magic of the holidays meets the heart of small business. In The Loop has created an event that celebrates local makers, brings families together, and reminds us why we love what we do. It’s always one of the highlights of our year.”
“I love connecting with amazing holiday shoppers and helping them find things they love.”

Events are $25/hr on average. However, these prices may vary depending on the scale of the event to help increase (or decrease) our entertainment and production budget.

If an event is cancelled due to rain, or other unsafe weather conditions, we will either reschedule the event, or give our vendors a credit to attend another In The Loop Market in the future.

For full refund, vendor must cancel more than 30 days prior to the event date.
