On Saturday, December 15, from 10 am to 5 pm, The Saguaro Scottsdale puts the joy back in gift-giving with the Mojave Flea Holiday Market: a nomadic market of makers and merchants from Joshua Tree, the Coachella Valley and beyond, offering the very best in handcrafted food, drink, jewelry, apparel, accessories, apothecary, housewares, furnishings, curated vintage and more. Created to celebrate community, culture, small business and local trade, the Mojave Flea Market partners with noted and diverse artisans who share their passion for quality, sustainability, wellness and love for nature.

The Saguaro’s popular La Señora, which features fresh, local ingredients for traditional American classics and Mexican-inspired dishes, will offer cocktails and tacos on-site for purchase.

“We have always wanted to do more around the holidays for our guests, and the local community,” said Erin Weinstock, Brand Director for The Saguaro Hotels. “When we started talking to the team at Mojave Flea, we saw that this would be a great opportunity to bring in makers from the surrounding deserts. We have a deep appreciation of local art and trade at The Saguaro and we are excited to have the chance to share it with the community.”

There will be free entry and parking and parking.
