About the Market
Welcome to Columbia’s original town square. Soda City Market is a producer-only market — vendors must make or grow their own products (including flowers and out of season/exotic fruits and vegetables). Antique and vintage items must be slowly and sustainably curated. Everything sold at our market is unique, hand crafted, and produced in the Southeast. The market fields an average of 200 vendors per week, and over 400 unique vendors throughout the year!
Soda City Market is Columbia’s weekly Main Street event inspired by traditional European street markets. We are open every Saturday morning 9 a.m. –1 p.m., year-round, rain or shine!
Find everything you need to nourish your brain, body, and belly—and help establish Columbia as the real southern hotspot for locals and visitors alike. Immerse yourself with local talent through an eccentric variety of buskers, entertainers, and live performances. Soda City Market is a microcosm of Columbia, a melting pot of cultures, and an inviting community experience worth making a part of your regular weekend routine.
We are located on the 1300, 1400, 1500, 1600, and 1700 blocks of Main Street!

What People are Saying
“Soda City Market is a fantastic community event that really brings the area together

“Soda city has been an amazing addition to my Saturday morning. There is alot of different cultures from foods, natural items, and personal things to buy. Fun place to bring your dog and meet friends listen to music and much more.”
Bridget
“I brought my parents & sister who were visiting out of town to this market and they loved it. They close off Main Street, making it walkable and a nice downtown experience. The amount and diversity of vendors is top tier.”
Madeline
“We recently stayed at the Sheraton in downtown Columbia, and the next morning Soda City Market was setup right outside. They close off several blocks of downtown and have 150 vendors selling food, fresh produce and crafts. Definitely a cool way to spend Saturday morning. If you love food, you will love all or the different food trucks and vendors. You will have a hard time trying to decide what to try! We tried the Turkish donuts and Turkish coffee on this visit, both were great. If you are in the area and love street markets, be sure to check out Soda City.”
