About the venue
Where the coast meets the city.
2nd & PCH is an open-air shopping center on the corner of 2nd Street and Pacific Coast Highway in Long Beach — waterfront-adjacent, breezy, and built for wandering.
The center sits just inland from the marina and the bay, at 6400 Pacific Coast Hwy, Long Beach, CA 90803. Wide walkways, palm trees, and coastal light make it one of the more relaxed places to spend a Southern California afternoon — and one of our favorite backdrops for a pop-up maker market.
When Dreamers Markets sets up here, the walkways fill with independent makers, food, music, and the easy, festival energy that follows our markets across the region. Come hungry, bring the dog, and plan to stay a while.
Dreamers Markets is a curated, free, family-friendly pop-up market series founded in Southern California in 2021 by Deniz Karmona. Since then we've hosted markets across Orange County, Los Angeles, San Diego, and Long Beach — and 2nd & PCH is a natural fit for the coastal, community-first energy we're known for.
What to expect
A little bit of everything.
Every market is curated fresh, so the lineup shifts from date to date — but across our markets you'll find a mix of independent makers, artists, and small food businesses side by side.
Expect jewelry and ceramics, candles and skincare, prints and home goods, vintage and apparel, plus baked goods, packaged treats, and prepared food to keep you fueled while you shop. It's the kind of place you come to find a gift and leave with three.
Admission is always free, the market is stroller-accessible and dog-friendly, and there's no ticket to buy — just show up and walk in.
Because 2nd & PCH sits right on the water's edge, it's an easy afternoon to build around: browse the market, grab a bite, and take a walk along the marina before you head home. Whether you're a Long Beach local or driving in from across Southern California, it's worth planning your day around.
