Shop local events, an R&B concert and parties

I love it! Southend is making Small Business Saturday a party, and I love a good party. Today is a great day for the family with a circus and a carshow. Of course, I've got your parties for tonight.  See you in the streets...

Shop Local - Southend has some special happenings for Small Business Saturday. The Vendor Village returns with more than 60 vendors inside a pop-up shop. Music, raffles, the Sugar Donut truck and craft beer. Triple C Brewing, 2900 Griffith St.



Unknown Brewing teams up with Wilson’s World for the second edition of Dudeapalooza. We've also teamed up with Wilson's World to bring a second rendition of Dudeapalooza.

Of course there will also be vendors at Atherton Mills. Chef Alyssa of Chef Alyssa's Kitchen will be holding a free cooking demo inside of her kitchen space at Atherton Market. Live music by The Thompson Brothers.

There will be two trolley's offering a free shuttle to each venue. A trolley stop will be every 15 minutes. All three locations will have food trucks all day.
