Salem Old Town Hall

The inaugural Love is Love Market is a free artisan marketplace celebrating Pride weekend in downtown Salem, MA — and everyone is invited.
On Saturday, June 27, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Old Town Hall (indoor) and Derby Square (outdoor) transform into a curated marketplace featuring nearly 30 local makers, artists, and small businesses from across the North Shore and beyond. This isn't a generic vendor fair. This is a market built around the people who pour their whole selves into what they create — the jewelers, the painters, the candlemakers, the bakers, the ceramicists, the designers who turned a passion into a business and a business into a community.
Shop handmade jewelry, original art, specialty foods, candles, ceramics, clothing, home goods, and more. This year's hand-selected lineup includes illustrator Karen Hallion, Sarah Kelly Ceramics, Dragonfly Candle &amp; Soap Co, Peace Florals, The Hippie Bean Co., Why Not Jewelry by Kirsty, Jack Attackk Clothing, Lory Sun Artistry, Wildwood Bindery, Alder &amp; Spice, Strawberry Oddities, and The Witchery — alongside more than a dozen more makers across both venues. Every vendor is hand-selected. Every purchase goes directly to the person who made it. And from noon to 3 PM, DJ Andrea Stamas brings the energy with a live, Pride-themed, family-friendly set — cued to start just as the North Shore Pride Parade makes its way through downtown.
Love is Love Market is timed to coincide with North Shore Pride celebrations, and that timing is intentional. This is a market that believes the creative economy and the LGBTQ+ community have always been connected — by courage, by self-expression, by the willingness to build something that didn't exist before. We wanted to create a space where that energy is visible, shoppable, and celebrated out loud — and 2026 is the first year we're bringing it to life.
Whether you're a longtime Salem local, visiting for Pride weekend, or just looking for a reason to spend a Saturday surrounded by good people and great makers — this is your day.
Make it the full Salem Pride experience. The Love is Love Market is one piece of a much bigger day. Start with the North Shore Pride Parade as it steps off through downtown Salem, gather on Salem Common for the North Shore Pride Festival, and then shop the Love is Love Market at Old Town Hall and Derby Square. We're proud to be part of a Pride weekend that fills the whole city — march, celebrate, shop, and stay all day.
Admission is free. All ages welcome. Leashed dogs welcome in Derby Square.
This inaugural year is made possible by two proud sponsors — Jenni Stuart Fine Jewelry and Witch City Walking Tours — two Salem businesses that showed up early and put their names on the line for a market that didn't exist yet. That's what real community looks like.
