The Market Elaine | Monthly Night Market in Wesley Chapel, FL

The Market Elaine is our collection of evening markets for local, small business owners in Wesley Chapel, FL! Over 150+ businesses every 1st Friday night! 

The Market Marie is named after Cora Marie (maternal grandmother), and The Market Elaine is named after Dolaura Elaine (paternal grandmother). Both of these amazing women showed us how to dream big, prioritize family, and love others while making the world a brighter place. Sadly, we lost both of our grandmothers during 2021, and we miss them dearly.

While neither of our beloved grandmothers were able to physically visit our markets, we are grateful we can honor their names in this way.
