Saturday Shoppes relocates due to Trop damage

The Saturday Shoppes, led by founder Renee Edwards, is set to relocate from Tropicana Field to Pinellas Technical College due to significant storm damage inflicted on the stadium. This strategic move underscores the market's resilience and its dedication to supporting local businesses in the community. The new address at 901 34th St. S will host the first event, a Fall Jazz & Seafood Fest, which is anticipated to attract both vendors and attendees alike. This festival will serve not only as a celebration of local culture but also as a vital platform for artisans and food vendors to showcase their offerings.

The relocation reflects a proactive approach to maintaining community engagement, which is essential for the market's survival and growth. By choosing a new venue, Saturday Shoppes aims to continue its mission of enhancing local commerce and fostering community spirit. The decision to move is a testament to the commitment of the Saturday Shoppes to adapt and thrive despite challenges. With the upcoming Fall Jazz & Seafood Fest, the community can look forward to renewed vibrancy and connection at the new location.
